According to our news partner KETK, there will be more than 36 miles of city roads, with 11 different routes. Routes will be added to existing pavement, minimizing construction to current roads. Development includes signage and lane markings, so disruption to motorists should be minimal. Construction will start before May 1 and is expected to be completed within six months. Riders can begin using lanes upon each tracks completion. Williams also said, that concerns about on-street parking are unwarranted, as bike lanes will not impact that in any way.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TYLER &#8212; A biking project has been a dream for many in the Rose city for years.
