Bike Lanes Open on 13th!

Woohoo!

As we mentioned,the North-South Bike lanes are going in on 10th & 13th Streets in Philly from South to Market. Then, a bill was floating around City Council that they’d had to approve bike lanes – which would likely delay more lanes being put in.

Good news! The Philadelphia Bicycle Coalition reported the Bike Lanes have been painted on 13th!! AND they’re updated on Google*, too!

*Update 6/21: While the Google Street View Camera Car was spotted documenting, the pics haven’t been updated ON the google yet. Watch out for that asap. Sorry, I got excited.

Check out the Bicycle Coalition’s Flickr feed of the new lanes.

Woohoo, Philly!
