Cars are out and bikes are in on 68th Street between Indian School and Thomas Roads.
The city council voted 4-3 during its March 21 meeting to remove one lane of traffic in each direction and replace them with buffered bicycle lanes. Council members Barry Graham and Betty Janik as well as Vice Mayor Kathy Littlefield voted against the move.
The move cuts traffic lanes down to one in each direction for the addition of bike lanes as well as add two flashing crosswalk lights and ADA ramps for crosswallks and the creation of left and right turn lanes.
