I live on 34th Avenue. At the present time, as lovely as it can be, it’s not safe and it’s not terribly sanitary. If it’s to remain an open street, it needs improvements. And by improvements, I mean enforced rules. Bikes and motor bikes go in every direction at every speed in all parts of the road. Cars (drivers)move the barriers but after they enter they don’t put the barriers back. That leads more drivers to enter the street assuming it’s open. I replaced barriers twice today during a walk, and they are heavy for me. My favorite part of the open street is sitting on the median and having a coffee/snack. But the grassy areas have too much garbage and smell of dog waste. So... maybe increase monitoring, repaint bike lanes, better signage, more garbage receptacles? Please don’t mock me for my opinion, as I see sometimes happen on this site. If my kids were still little I would not let them play on the street because of the random wheeled traffic.
