[Neighbors] Looking forward to slower traffic

[abqcleve via Neighbors_nobhill-nm]

I haven't really had a strong opinion on this other than, "Busses? Why not something much more appealing?" But, on Friday, with the setup for SummerFest, we saw what one lane looks like and it was awful. A stream of cars that will not let you cross. Took five minutes to get across to Zacatecas....

The old layout with narrow lanes, traffic suddenly stopping and backing up for left turns, and very limited visibility made us give up on Zuni.

When ART is built I look forward to a time when road conditions make it impossible to go as fast as you please on Central, and I've heard nothing but praise from the cycling community for the re-striping on Zuni. They don't seem to fear it. Maybe I'm only listening to those who agree with me.
