According to a Chicago Tribune article (written by Jon Hilkevitch on January 9, 2011), Chicago is considering additional “road diets,” which reduce the number of through travel lanes to make room for turning lanes and accommodations for walkers and cyclists. The article describes a potential project now being studied on Lawrence Avenue in the Lincoln Square neighborhood and presents the viewpoints of the local Chamber of Commerce and the Alderman, as well as traffic concerns that the City of Chicago Department of Transportation will need to address in its project studies.
