The San Francisco Bay Conservation and Development Commission voted to limit access to the bike lane on the Richmond-San Rafael Bridge as part of a three-year pilot program. This decision, made by a majority vote, aims to test if reserving the lane for emergencies during peak hours can alleviate traffic congestion. Starting in October, the lane will only be open on Thursday afternoons through Sundays. The program hopes to enhance emergency response times and might consider converting the lane back for full-time traffic and bike use based on future evaluations.
