Bicycle Board Members,
Today, I agreed with Damien Davis of the City Engineer's office to draft a letter for the City to send to the WVDOT requesting Share the Road signs and a bike lane for Mon Blvd. to support the Traffic Commissions decision last night to support these. Attached is the draft letter.
*Does anybody have an electronic copy of the AASHTO guidelines for Bicycle Facility design that you can send me or point me to so I can cite relevant sections for bike lane design?*
Also, I would appreciate any constructive edits you could make and return to me by early afternoon tomorrow, Friday. (Please use Track Changes.) I want to get this to Damien Davis by COB tomorrow.

Good meeting tonight. Frank, you can get the AASHTO guidelines at http://www.sccrtc.org/bikes/AASHTO_1999_BikeBook.pdf .

Frank, pointed out that the file from this link wasn't working. It used to work, but it got corrupted. For those who would like to look at the AASHTO (highly recommended) I found another link at http://www.communitymobility.org/pdf/aashto.pdf .
