Today: Bryant Ave virtual open house from 7-8. Live Q&A. https://twitter.com/CityMinneapolis/status/1257764056917778433">https://twitter.com/CityMinne...
Staff intro happening now. I want to know all about this guy& #39;s podcast. Look at that microphone.
Why is this happening? Because Bryant is 60 years old and "getting pretty rough out there."
"We are going to be using a true block by block approach" that& #39;s "data driven."
Here& #39;s some data: "On Saturday evening when parking is busiest, approximately 50% of the 700 stalls are occupied."

Uh oh, someone wants to know why bikes don& #39;t pay taxes. Get in on this Q&A.
City wants this to be an 8-to-80 bikeway where people of all ages to feel comfortable riding on Bryant. They know the sharrows aren& #39;t working.
I& #39;m not sure what this means.
City staff says they realize it& #39;s not always comfortable biking with buses.
Metro Transit rep says they& #39;re taking a look at whether the buses stay on Bryant.

Someone wants to make Lyndale a freeway. "Go bikers!" (I think this is a reference to "the fighting bikers" which is the mascot for Wedge State University)
We have a vote for airport-style moving walkway.
Grim vision of the future from city staff who says, though it& #39;s still early in process, "it might not be as convenient to park right outside your house."
Chicanes are on the table, "if they& #39;re contextually right" as part of the block-by-block approach.
If you couldn& #39;t be here LIVE, call someone on the phone tomorrow.
