••• In other bike lane news, the agenda for the December 9 meeting of the city’s Board of Architectural Review includes this: “Proposal for bicycle centered improvements to the right of way of Alisos Street from Canon Perdido to Cacique Street. The project creates a new traffic-calmed, low stress bike boulevard through the neighborhood along Alisos Street, which parallels the Eastside’s main commercial corridor along Milpas Street [….] The new bike boulevard connects to the Haley and Cota Streets On-Street/Class II Bike Lanes, and to Santa Barbara Junior High, Santa Barbara High School, and to the Downtown core. Also included in the project are sidewalk infill sections, curb ramps, and enhanced school crosswalks to Santa Barbara Junior High and Santa Barbara High School.”
