BIKE: Crape Myrtles on SCB

[kristen theiler]

As I commuted on debris-ridden SCB this morning I
thought about those crazy curb extensions. When the
crape myrtles are planted and begin to grow, won't
they become a sight obstruction to vehicles trying to
pull from driveways/roads onto SCB, causing them to
pull into the multi-use lanes to see around them? Most
just seem to be near driveways, but the one on the NW
corner by Treadwell is close to that intersection.
Perhaps not many cars come from Treadwell, but seems
having trees planted in the multi-use lanes is going
to introduce visibility issues since peds and cyclists
can be difficult to see in the first place. Curious to
know if this was explained when the curb extentions
were planned - ??

Thanks,
Kristen Theiler
