Bicycle Signage Survey

http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.aspx?sm=_2bdmAJQR4_2f7OrJANA0wbg2Q_3d_3d

This survey will provide preliminary data that will help the East Coast Greenway Alliance to get a proper hearing from the national committee now considering changes to our bicycle-route, roadway, and trail signage. If you can spare 12 minutes to fill it out, you will have done much to help this important process.

Thanks and a Happy Greenway 2009!

that survey is all jacked up. It reset itself four times in Camino, so I'm giving up.

Does anyone else feel the same revulsion at the proposed new symbol for cyclist? I get that they're trying to indicate that there's person on the bike - that's fine. But the posture of the symbol-person looks too much like a roadie. Grandma and her old Schwinn step-through have as much right to a full lane as Uncle Steve and his Cervelo. I'd prefer a more inclusive symbol.

Many of the suggested signage changes--especially the use of a blue background instead of the current green background--seem ill advised or lame, but I'd like to know the results of this survey.

I thought the cyclist looked weird. Not because it was bent over, but it just didn't look like a cyclist. Hopefully the results of the survey will be released.

While I think there is definitely room for improvement on standard bike signage, this ain't it. I'd rather stick with the current poor design if at least for the sake of consistency.
