Garry Earls, the director of the St. Louis County Highways & Traffic Department, will attend the next meeting of the East-West Gateway Council of Government's Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory Committee on Wednesday, Feb 21, to discuss how Interstate 64/Highway 40 work will affect bicyclists on neighboring roads -- especially Clayton and Ladue roads, two roads that are popular with St. Louis County cyclists.
The meeting, which is open to the public, begins at noon at East-West Gateway's 16th-floor office at 1 Memorial Drive, Suite 1600, in downtown St. Louis. Earls is expected to speak between 12:20 and 1 p.m.
Hopefully, the meeting will succeed in separating the facts from fiction about how the project will affect cyclists. As I mentioned last week, there are concerns efforts to get traffic off Interstate 64/Highway 40, a major traffic artery for the St. Louis region, will lead to less safe cycling conditions neighboring roads, especially Clayton Road.Labels: advocacy, cycling, safety, St. Louis
