56. Before the bike/ped signal was white when the traffic was coming off the
freeway and turning across the path crossing. Now it is white when the
southbound Black Mountain Road traffic has the protected left turn onto the
eastbound 56 onramp. It works much better, although I’m not sure how we
will stop eastbound bicyclists from crossing when the light for the freeway off-ramp
traffic is green. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>Thanks for posting, Jon. The two-way bike path runs to the
<b>right</b> of two right-turn-only lanes, despite SDCBC's pleas that it be
engineered, albeit at higher cost, to avoid precisely this scenario. My
condolences to the victim's family.<br>
