". ~, Councilman Williams wanted to know the nature of specifications for construction on 'Echo Hollow Road as they relate to use of bicycles in that area. He noted that a report request on use of sidewalks for bicycles had not been received. He said he would not be interested in engineer- ing objections to use of rolled curbs because' of drainage, and that unless there was an al terna- tive methoq ofconstpuction w?ich would permit transition of bicycles from sidewalk to street, he would vote against this proj ect . Public Works Director explained' that the plans fOr the street provide for a five-foot path on each side designed to accommodate bicycle use. Bids will be called on basis of the extra width giving the Council an opportunity to decide whether funds should be included for the bicycle path construction on the project; He added that the Bicycle Committee is working on a possible change in specifications at intersections which will allow bicycle travel from sidewalk to street level;' After further discussion of type of ramps 'and curbs planned, Manager said staff would not agree to construction of rolled curbs along the side gutter.
