Deskripsyon
The main benefit of the bike lanes here would be to reduce vehicle speeding. It would also make cycling between Westville and Downtown New Haven more comfortable - many residents currently report feeling too unsafe to ride next to the traffic here, which frequently exceeds speeds of 45 miles per hour. See description at http://nacto.org/cities-for-cycling/design-guide/bike-lanes/buffered-bike-lanes/.

I agree, citizen. The main benefit of this measure would be reducing speeds, which would help drivers and pedestrians, and property values in the Edgewood area.
There are many ways to accomplish this - we need to look at some of the more progressive traffic design solutions being used in cities around the United States, referenced in the NACTO manual below and elsewhere.
