All -

 

The Vermont St bridge was closed on Saturday only as part of replacing the
bollards at the south end, which kept getting knocked down.  As of yesterday
(Monday), a temporary wooden walkway had been put in place around and
partially over the excavation area.  The two 90-degree turns are a bit
tight, so you may have to dismount or at least slow down appreciably to make
it through there.

 

BTW, I live right there, so I've been watching this.  Plus, the project
manager's office is right down the hallway from mine.  :-)

Dear All:
    Proper bike lanes on much-bike-traveled streets sounds good. Might even 
get people off the sidewalks when they're wheeling.
    HOWEVER, as of Saturday, the Vermont St. ped bridge itself was blocked 
off with construction barriers at the southern end. It's a pretty hefty 
concrete and steel structure, so if the intended traffic (pedestrians 
and cyclists) caused it to collapse than the US obesity problem really 
is out of control....
