Deadline for comments on proposal to AMEND THE MANAGEMENT PLAN FOR THE BLM CAMPBELL TRACT FACILITY. For more information, call 907-267-1246

At first glance, the schematics for the project look pretty good for bicyclists

and pedestrians. There is a 6 foot wide shoulder and a multi-use path.

The shoulder however WILL NOT be striped as a bike lane if DOT gets its way.

DOT is asserting that they will not paint bike lanes unless the Municipality

agrees to maintain the on-road bike lane painted striping and markings.

However, DOT has no such requirements for the other on-road stripings for

the motor vehicle lanes. This is a DOT project and a DOT maintained road.

Federal Department of Transportation policy set out by

Secretary LaHood that requires state DOTs to treat bicycle and pedestrian

transportation equal with motor vehicle transportation.

You can learn more about the project here and
http://www.dowlhkm.com/projects/wdowlingroad/home.htm

Submit your comments here. They can be brief. Just let them know they need to

include bike lanes. DOT has already stated that they haven’t heard from many

folks on this project. Lets change that!

Bicycle Commuters of Anchorage

{Note: Original message has been slightly edited by the ABC to be more informational in nature}

We need volunteers for our Bike Valet Program which provides free and secure
bike parking at some of Anchorage’s biggest summer events. We also need help
manning the Coffee And Treats stations on the last Friday of each month through
the summer.

If you are not sure what bike parking entails, check out our “Events” page
for a description and a list of all the events. Also, we are always looking for
volunteers with experience in grant writing, graphics design, and corporate
outreach.

Join us Tuesday to raise a glass and toast the Anchorage Bicycle Plan and the
great summer ahead of us!

Midnight Sun Brewing Company is located in South Anchorage at 8111 Dimond Hook
Drive, a couple blocks North of Home Depot on Abbott Rd. Heading east on Dimond
Blvd past Seward Hwy and Sandlewood Place, get in the left turn lane then do
“the squiggle” to remain on E. Dimond Blvd. Turn left on Petersberg Street.
Turn right on Dimond Hook Drive…its the big brown block bldg.

We of course encourage people to go by bike. if you are curious how to get
there from the north, and would prefer to use low volume neighborhood roads,
check out this posting on our website:

Cost is very minimal at $25 and so if interested in having an introduction or simply building skills this might be a good clinic for you or your spouse.

The Clinic runs May 26th through June 23rd (5 Weeks).

Additional Information and how to sign-up can be found at:

http://recreation.arcticbikeclub.org

or emailing womensclinic @ arcticbikeclub.org

The event immediately took off from the time of setup and we hope to adjust for that next year in our advertising. The peak of the event was about 1:30pm when there were about 4-5 rows of gears and people completely filling the AT&T Complex’s soccer field.

By 2:15pm inventories started running low for people who brought stuff to sell and people started packing up and by 3pm the event was essentially over.

Next year we plan on a shorter setup time, with access to the setup period mostly restricted to the bike club and any shops wanting to setup that require more time to do so. Then the doors will open for the ‘free for all’ event.

Those asked who brought stuff to sell were happy with the results of the sale and many people walked away happy with a purchase.

Thank You all who participated.
