WVDOH has replaced the in-line grates on Beechurst Av. with bicycle-friendly grates. See attached before and after pics.
Thanks to Bryan Radabaugh, WVDOH District 4 Design Engineer for making it happen.
Thanks to Betsy Shogren for first identifying the issue way back in 2007 when the BB brainstormed a list of improvements for bicyclists.

Bravo! Generations of cyclists have told the city and WVDOT about grates. This is the first time I know of that something was done. Good for you guys!
