Another motor vehicle ran into fence of Monterey’s North Fremont St center-of-street bike lanes. This design was 1st such design in California. (BTW #CalBike referred to the project as "Worst award-winning bikeway” of 2020 https://www.calbike.org/calbikes-best-and-worst-of-2020/.)

San Francisco followed Monterey's lead, putting center lanes on Valencia St, then realized that (for most locales) center bikeways aren’t the smartest design. Thanks to persistence of advocate & organizer @LukeBornheimer & other supporters of protected curbside bike lanes—not center lanes—things are looking up for Valencia.

Meanwhile in Monterey, sharp debris from latest N Fremont collision, plus fence wire sticking out into bike lane, is shown in post—along with how to report conditions in #Monterey County &on #California hwys: https://bikemonterey.org/report-bikeway-maintenance-needs-e-g-north-fremont-monterey.html
