City of Tampa, Take Down That "Bike Lane Ends" Sign!

SWFBUD asked the city of Tampa for years to improve Bayshore Blvd -- and recently the city extended a former bike lane that ended a mile and a half from downtown.

That meant the "Bike Lane Ends" sign could be toppled and removed.

And it was this afternoon as city staffers removed the sign that was no longer needed.

On my left is Sally Thompson, Jean Duncan, Jim Shirk and Beth Alden.
