Englewood aims to accommodate cyclists City adding bike lanes along busy streets BY JOSEPH RIOS JRIOS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
If the final destination isn’t too far away from his Englewood house, Wayne Canaban prefers to ride his bicycle. But last year as he was riding through Denver during the evening, he was hit by a car. The accident left him with a painful broken collarbone. “A lot of days you see those bumper stickers that say to share the road. It has a lot to do with the people who are driving and watching out for cyclists,” Canaban said on a hot August day at the South Platte River Trail in Englewood. Canaban said he would like to see Englewood add more bicycle lanes, and that’s been in the works in the city recently. Englewood is planning to install signs and roadway striping for bicycle lanes in each direction along Dartmouth Avenue. The project will also feature bike lanes that extend between Inca Street and University Avenue. One of the goals of the project is to improve local and regional bicycle connections with ties to Denver SEE CYCLISTS, P6
