Ingqungquthela yase-Illinois Bike ifake izibuyekezo kumaphrojekthi eLogan, Big Marsh, ezansi

I-Illinois Bike Summit, umhlangano waminyaka yonke wabahleli bezithuthuthu, abameli, abanikazi bezindlu zokugcina izitolo, nabathandi, yenzeke cishe ngoLwesibili ngendikimba yengqalasizinda, ukufunda nokufakwa, kanye namakilasi okuphumula aqoqwe ngaphansi kwamakilasi onke.

Usuku luvulwe ngamazwi avela ku-Invoice Nesper, umqondisi we-govt we-League of American Bicyclists; UMaulik Vaishnav, umeluleki wokwembozwa kwezokuthutha emsebenzini wemeya uLori Lightfoot, owanikeza umbono omncane wohlelo lokuhamba lwedolobha lwango-2021; nomxhumanisi wombuso u-Theresa Mah, Isifunda sakhe sesi-2 esine-Again of the Yards, Bridgeport, Brighton Park, Pilsen, Chinatown naseMcKinley Park. UMah ukhulume ngemizamo yakhe yokuthola iDutch Reach - inqubo elwa neminyango yokuvula umnyango wezimoto kanye nesandla sakho esikude, esikuphoqa ukuthi uphinde ubheke ngakuye noma yibaphi abagibeli bamabhayisikili abezayo - kubashayeli base-Illinois ababheke.

Ngihambele kakhulu amakilasi okuphumula anengqalasizinda (iStreneyblog's Courtney Cobbs ingahle ibe nokuvikeleka okwengeziwe kwengqungquthela kusasa), ngiqale ngo- “Bikeway Variety and Bike Planning” nomxhumanisi omkhulu wezokukhangisa waseTrip Illinois u-Ed Barsotti. Iseshini ibiyisisekelo sokuqala ekuhleleni nasekusebenziseni, iqale ngohlu lwezincwajana ezemukelwe yizinhlangano eziningi ezilawulayo, eziningi zazo ebezisidala ngokumangazayo. Njengesibonelo, inguqulo “yamanje” ye- “Information for the Growth of Bicycle Amenities” evela e-American Affiliation of State Freeway and Transportation Officers - ecabanga ngemininingwane egunyaziwe yezinga lenhlangano yokwakha ingqalasizinda yamabhayisikili entsha - ivela ngonyaka ka-2012, iminyaka ngaphambi kwezindlela ezithandwayo zokwabelana ngamabhayisikili kanye nezikuta zombuso ezingenalutho zakhula zanda eMelika, kwaguqulwa indlela engcono kakhulu yokusebenzisa ingqalasizinda yamabhayisikili ezindaweni zasedolobheni. UBarsotti ubalule ukuthi amabhukwana emigwaqo yase-Illinois Division of Transportation (aqhamuka e-Bureau of Design and Surroundings and Bureau of Native Roads and Streets) nawo asilele emuva ngemuva kwezidingo zikazwelonke ngaphambi kwalokhu, kepha okwamanje ziyahlangabezana nezimo.

UBarsotti wabe esenikeza isifinyezo sezindlela zokuhamba ezihamba emigwaqeni eyahlukene nasemgwaqeni: ukuthi zisebenza kanjani nokuthi kwamukeleke kakhulu kusiphi isimo. Isibonelo, izindlela zomgwaqo ezingekho emgwaqweni zamukeleka kakhulu ngokulandela imigwaqo enejubane elinemiphambanandlela embalwa. I-Sharrows - imizila eyabiwe emakwe ngezimpawu zebhayisikili ne-chevron - iyindawo yokugcina lapho kungahle kuthathwe njengendawo enganele yomzila wesithuthuthu emgwaqweni wejubane eliphansi, wedolobha.

UBarsotti wabe esenikeza inani elinzima liyahluka ngemayela ngalinye lokuqalisa zonke izinhlobo zebhayisikili, nezindlela ezibanzi zokuhlela nokwenza imisebenzi. Ubalule ukubaluleka kokubandakanya izakhamizi ngesikhathi sokuhlelela, ukufaka amapulani indawo engaba khona ezimisweni nasemisebenzini ehlukene yomgwaqo, futhi ngokwemvelo, isuka ekuphikisweni kwesitayela i-Not In My Again Yard. Ngithole phakathi kwezici eziphumelele kakhulu zesethulo sakhe ukuthi zithakazelisa kakhulu. Njengesibonelo, iwebhusayithi yeRide Illinois inesibali seBicycle Stage of Service esithatha inqwaba yamamethrikhi emigwaqo emikhulu - izivakashi zamasayithi, ububanzi behlombe, umkhawulo wejubane, izivakashi zesiza semoto esindayo, isimo sendlela, njalonjalo. - futhi ikhipha izinga lokuthi abantu abadala abaningi abanethezekile bangahamba kanjani ngebhayisikili ngaphansi kwalezi zimo. Ngemuva kwengqungquthela, ngichithe ihora elikhulu ngifaka ekuqageleni kwami ​​okuhle kakhulu kwezici zemininingwane ye-BLOS emigwaqweni engaba yishumi nambili engivame ukukhubeka ngayo.

Ngemuva kokudla kwasemini, ngiye engqungqutheleni ye- “Infrastructure Case Research”, ebinikeza isifinyezo semisebenzi emi-4: Ukukhula kwamanje kwama-bikeways we-CDOT ngaphakathi kwedolobha elikhulu, izinhlelo zedizayini yeChicago River Path ezokwanda iLake Calumet futhi ijoyine indawo yasePullman neLarge Marsh Park , Umsebenzi omangazayo we-MCORE ka-Champaign-Urbana, kanye nomqaphi wepompo omusha sha eShelbyville. UDavid Smith, umphathi wamabhayisikili nabahamba ngezinyawo we-CDOT ukhulume ngezithuthukisi zamanje kwingqalasizinda yamabhayisikili eChicago: amamayela angama-30 wamabhayisikili wakamuva afakwa kulezi zinyanga eziyi-12, ukwengezwa kwamathani ama-racks wamabhayisikili afunwa ngokulangazelela (nesikhathi esedlule), ukukhula kwe-Divvy iziteshi ku-Far South Aspect nokwethulwa kwamaDivies kagesi.

Kancane kancane isethulo esibhekiswe ebhizinisini elibhidlikile ngoMsombuluko, sithuthukisa ukunwetshwa kweMilwaukee Avenue phakathi kwezindlela zaseWestern neCalifornia eLogan Sq .. Ukupaka izimoto kungenzeka kuhlanganiswe kufinyelele enyakatho yomgwaqo futhi kudluliselwe kwesobunxele komzila webhayisikili oboshwe ngasenyakatho-ntshonalanga ukunikeza ukuphepha komzimba. Engxenyeni eseningizimu yomgwaqo, imigoqo yepulasitiki cishe izofakwa ukwakha umzila webhayisikili ovikelekile oseningizimu-mpumalanga. Lo msebenzi ngokwengeziwe uqukethe imigwaqo eyehlayo eyengeziwe enezintambo zezihlalo zabakhubazekile.

UDavid Smith uhamba ngecebo lokuthuthukisa indawo iMilwaukee Ave. eLogan Sq ..

UTim Gustafson, umhleli omkhulu we-ejensi yezakhiwo u-Epstein, ukhulume ngezingqinamba eziqala ukuklama ucezu lomgwaqo iChicago River Path obekelwe ukunweba iLake Calumet. Izikhukhula, ukubuyela emuva okujwayelekile ezindleleni ezifakiwe njengedolobha laseChicago Riverwalk lapho amabanga wamanzi enyuka phakathi nentwasahlobo, kuyinkinga enkulu yendlela entsha sha. Indlela entantayo, esusa isihloko sezikhukhula futhi enomqondo omubi kakhulu wezemvelo, kubukeka sengathi impendulo. Manje abaklami badinga itheku elingamashumi amathathu lokuqala lomgwaqo elintanta njengogqozi lokuthi umuntu angakha kanjani indlela entantayo eqinile eyenele izivakashi zesiza sebhayisikili. Ukucatshangelwa okwehlukile kufaka ibanga lendlela nokutholakala kwamakhasimende ezihlalweni ezinamasondo, nokuthi umuntu angawavikela kanjani abagibeli bamabhayisikili nabahamba ngezinyawo emabhola egalufu ayiphutha aseduze yiHarborside Worldwide Golf Heart. Inkambo yokwakhiwa kwendlela iyaqhubeka, futhi alukho usuku lokuphothula olwethulwayo.

I-Lively Transportation Alliance ekuqaleni yaphakamisa ibhuloho leLake Calumet njengenqubo yokwenza ngcono ukungena kweLarge Marsh. Isithombe: ATA

Ngenkathi ngangigxile kakhulu ekulaleleni ngemisebenzi esekwe eChicago, ukwethulwa kohlelo lweMCORE (Multimodal Hall Enhancement) eChampaign-Urbana kwakukhuthaza impela. Isibonelelo sikahulumeni esingu- $ 15 million sixhase ibhizinisi elinengxenye ezinhlanu elilungisa kabusha ukuhamba ngebhayisikili nokuhamba esikhaleni. URyan Hughes, ongunjiniyela wezokuThutha eClark Dietz, inkampani yezobunjiniyela yalolu hlelo, ukhulume esebenzisa lolu hlelo ngokweqophelo lendlela olushintshe ngayo ukuhamba kwakhe ngebhayisikili usuku ngalunye ukusuka e-Urbana kuya edolobheni laseChampaign. I-Avenue engenalwazi, umgwaqo omkhulu osempumalanga nentshonalanga kanye nesikhungo seKolishi lase-Illinois, wagcwala izitaladi ngezigaba eziningi ukuze ushintshe ube ngumzila olungele amabhayisikili ophakathi kwamadolobha. Ingxenye ye-Inexperienced Avenue ngaphakathi kwenhliziyo ye-campus yacatshangelwa ukuthi izokwamukela kahle izivakashi ezinyaweni ezisindayo, zamabhayisikili nezamabhasi ezinamapulatifomu ezokuthutha esiqhingini avikela imizila yamabhayisikili enobuhlungu obuluhlaza, njengesakhiwo seWashington Avenue ingxenye yehholo likaLoop Hyperlink laseChicago .

Imephu yemisebenzi emi-5 ye-MCORE.

Isethulo sokugcina sanikezwa nguJerry Yockey, usihlalo we-Basic Dacey Path eShelbyville, e-Illinois, ebekwe cishe ngamamayela angama-70 eningizimu-ntshonalanga yeChampaign-Urbana. UYockey uyivolontiya elisize ukusetha ukwakhiwa kwesiqapha futha eduze kwendlela. (Umqaphi wepompo amasekhethi axeguzela phezulu ngendlela yokuthi abagibeli bamabhayisikili bangakha ijubane elanele elenzeka kuwo wonke ama-curler ukuze akwazi ukuthambekela kokulandelayo, ukuhamba ngebhayisikili ngaphesheya kokuqapha ngokusebenzisa idrayivu eya kuma-handlebars, kungadingeki ukunyathela. okukhulunywe ngakho ukuthi i-monitor iyisimo esikhulu sezingane futhi iqonde ngokwanele ukuthi ngisho nezingane kanye nabagibeli bamabhayisikili abasanda kufika bakhubeke nganoma yiluphi uhlobo lwesithuthuthu. Lapha eChicago, kunamathrekhi empompo eLarge Marsh naseClark Park (lesi sakamuva saziwa ngokuthi “The Backyard. ”)

Ngenkathi ukuthuthukiswa kwengqalasizinda eChicago ezinyangeni eziyi-12 ezedlule, ikakhulukazi ama-bikeways amasha kanye neziteshi zamasheya eSouth Aspect, kuyizindlela ezisendleleni eqondile, ukutshalwa kwemali emigwaqeni yamabhasi ezinikele kanye neSikhwama Semigwaqo Esivikelekile saminyaka yonke sokuhambahamba / ngamabhayisikili ingqalasizinda , okubhekiswe kakhulu emaphaseji aphahlazeka kakhulu emiphakathini engagodliwe, bafuna ukubhekana nokungalingani kwezokuthutha okuye kwandiswa yilo bhubhane. Akukwephuzile kakhulu ukuxhumana no-alderman wakho ukuveza ukwesekwa kwe-Lively Transportation Alliance ka-2021 eseqhulwini lwezimali, kanye nabamele ibandla lakho ukuzwakalisa usizo lwezimali zezimo eziphuthumayo ukuthi zifakwe kwi-invoyisi yosizo elandelayo.
