Welcome to Kirkland. Prepare to get run over.





Too bad Kirkland hasn't yet installed bike lanes on 116th Ave NE. There are nice bike lanes on this road on the Bellevue section, but once you get across the city limit and enter Kirkland, the bike lane is over. You get a bit of shoulder here and there, separated by sections of road with just a fog line at the edge of the pavement.

Apparently this section of road has been identified to the Transportation Commission as needing bike lanes, but so far emails to the City as to dates for actual lanes have gone unanswered.
