Good point, Kyle. Actually on the north side, the bicycle lane is
protected by the motor vehicle parking. On the south side it has a
3 foot wide buffer, to which could be added bollards. But the City
is squeamish about bollards, claiming they are in the way of snow
plowing and street sweeping (which I don't agree). So I first
wanted to get the overall concept recognized, before venturing into
bollards. But they can happen if everyone pushes for them. I'm
sure game.<br>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">Hi all:<br>
K.U. has told the City that the "high volume street" they want
would be a corridor along Mississippi St from 11th to 9th, and
along 9th St from Mississippi to downtown.<br>
<br>
9th Street is already a multi-modal street, though poorly
designed. It's being planned for an upgrade along with
construction of the Jayhawk Watershed Stormwater project. The
City Assistant Director of MSO, Melinda Harger, told me that
they also want a 9th Street design to coordinate with K.U.
plans.<br>
<br>
Sustainability Action Network (group I'm with) has proposed
the attached design for 9th Street, to match the motor vehicle
lanes with those west of Mississippi St., and include
protected bicycle lanes. 9th Street has the highest collision
rate of any street between bicycles and motor vehicles
(including one death).<br>
<br>
As a K.U. corridor to downtown, 9th Street needs to address
bicycle and pedestrian safety, not just motor vehicle use -
IMO.<br>

some of you may be aware, KU has announced
another gateway project and football
expansion at 11th and Mississippi streets.
This expansion may include a multi-purpose
year round conference center, retail space,
medical offices, and perhaps a hotel at a
later date. A developer has purchased
neighborhood property at 1030 Maine,
directly north of the stadium. Chancellor
Girod has stated Mississippi Street between
Ninth and Fambrough will be a "high volume
street." <br>
<br>
Neighborhood organizations from Old West
Lawrence, OREAD, West Hills, and University
Heights have formed a multi-neighborhood
exploratory group to gather information both
from KU and the City regarding the
development at 11th and Mississippi. While
these four neighborhoods are in close
proximity to the area targeted, KU’s plans
are a citywide concern. If your neighborhood
LAN representative is interested in joining
the multi-neighborhood group, please contact
