Bicycle Austin forum

This forum’s roots date back to the very first bike email list in Austin, starting in 1994, and it played a part in the getting the segregated bike lanes you see all over town.  Be a part of history and make a post!

Got some replies to my inquiries. "Travis County does intend to stripe for bicycle lanes after the City of Austin water line is installed along McNeil Drive.  The water line project will trigger an overlay of the roadway which in turn will allow us to alter the striping configuration and add bicycle lanes, but until the road is repaved, the striping will remain as is"..  unfortunately the water line project is delayed.. so we shall see.

Anyone know if they will ever complete/extend the bike lane that stops at Research park loop on McNeil between 183 & parmer?  Right now i commute up parmer and cut through the neighborhood but even then, when i turn left from Lost Indios Trail to McNeil just to try and cut over to Technology Drive, i feel like i'm putting my life on the line - there is no shoulder, terrible wide parking  lots with traffic zipping in and out and the right turn to get on technology drive has absolutely NO room if traffic is there..
