On behalf of the Councilman we would like to prioritize the implementation of bike lanes on Cypress Ave. and Avenue 28. Thank you all for your attention to the issue and please let me know how I can be of most help.

Hi Brian,

While we don’t yet have a date for implementation for these we are happy to work with the Council Office to help prioritize them for early implementation. Bike lanes are coming soon to York Blvd., from Ave. 55 to Figueroa. North Figueroa is actually in the EIR package of priority 1 lanes that will be up for approval by Council soon. These lanes on Cypress would seem to be ideally suited for prioritizing next, but they haven’t been brought up yet at the Bicycle Plan Implementation Team meetings.

What is the status of approved bike lanes on Cypress Avenue and Avenue 28 in the city of Los Angeles community of Cypress Park?

Why have they not been implemented yet?

As a local resident of Glassell Park I frequently ride through Cypress Park and I would like to get these lanes up and running.

We don’t need excuses, we need results.

It’s even more infuriating that LADOT is bending the truth (or is just plain ignorant) for something that could protect children’s safety. We’re talking about making it easier for kids to feel safe and ride their bikes to school, and their official stance is that they’ll consider bike lanes if they “make sense for the streets.”

What about what makes sense for the young people who are using the streets?
