"Last year, what I noticed is that a lot of people in West Hartford were putting their bicycles on their cars and driving to town center to participate in center streets, which I thought was kind of sad. [People shouldn't] have to strap their bicycles on their cars to get to a bike- and pedestrian-friendly event."
"A lot of people don't seem to be able to really visualize these [projects] with maps alone. And so when you actually have cones laid out for people to see it with their own eyes and pedal it with their own legs - it really makes a big difference."
"We're hoping this pop-up bike lane will encourage more permanent infrastructure that supports cyclists and pedestrians to access events like Center Streets without the need of a vehicle."
