Hi neighbors,
I moved into my house in West Seattle 30 years ago, and have been a weekly runner on Alki, and now both bike and run there almost every day. I am asking for support in approaching city government to relabel and “repurpose” the Alki Trail -
the part that is designated for bikes only! I’ll indicate what I’m asking for, give some background information and data, and then state the rationale.
The Ask:
I am asking that the Trail, which is currently labeled with the same icon used in roadways for bikes only, 1. be labeled in words “For Runners and Wheels Only,” and, 2. for that part of the trail to have a dashed yellow line down the middle to indicate passable lanes.
