Idaho Passes Bills Hampering Bike Lane Construction - Cycling West - Cycling Utah

Senate Bill 1140 and Senate Bill 1144 have passed in the state of Idaho. These bills will regulate and dictate when bike lanes and sidewalks can be built in Ada County, including Boise. The bills were sponsored by now former Senator Mark Harris, who is from Soda Springs, Idaho

Guy from Caribou County, ~300 miles away, dictates how Ada can construct its infrastructure. Of course, he claims to be a smoll government type, yet is somehow fine using the state to tell counties what they can and cannot do.

Next thing you know, any new planned sidewalks will be replaced with 2 full lanes of traffic.
