Now that Jefferson Avenue has reached a conclusion and will be declared a bike boulevard after 4 years and countless shenanigans, the city of St. Paul is ready to discuss another bike boulevard.

On May 8th, the Hamline Midway Coalition will discuss a possible bicycle boulevard north of University Avenue from Park Street to Aldine Street. The meeting will be from 5 to 6:30 p.m. at the Hamline-Midway Library. Roadway changes to facilitate bike boulevard status, plus connections to the University of Minnesota Transitway, will be discussed. Feedback from the meeting will influence the city’s design plans.

Then, everyone will start wanking around and we’ll see something actually happen with this sometime around 2017. Bet on it.
