Bad placement for these bike lanes

-

RE: Herkimer/Charlton bike lanes

As I was driving along Herkimer Street and Charlton Avenue recently, I wondered: Was there any thought put into placing the bike lane right next to the car park lane? I can’t imagine that planner has ever ridden a bike in the city. Problem No. 1: Driver opens car door into the bike lane as the cyclist comes flying by.

It happens. Is the city prepared for this?
