    Dangerous grates on the narrow section beside the lake. Take up half the width of the sidewalk so sometimes you can't avoid them.

  2. October 03 2011

    Pavement in VERY bad shape on this block, uneven with cracks and potholes the entire stretch

  3. October 03 2011

    Gwynns Falls Trail users crossing the road here need a better crosswalk with signs and bike activated flashing lights for oncoming motorists. This is a wide road with fast moving cars.

    Remnant of pipe embedded vertically in bike path

  5. October 03 2011

    Very bad erosion problems, holes, cracking pavement, and sediment buildup on this connection between MSU and Lake

  6. October 03 2011

    Fence prevents bikes from accessing Lake Drive from Hillen Rd/35th Street.

  7. October 03 2011

    Dangerous and scary intersection to navigate on a bike. There are just too many cars turning in 4 directions.

  8. October 03 2011

    Bike lanes contain mounds of concrete, making them unusable in places.

  9. October 03 2011

    We need bike/ped access to Lake Drive from either Windemere Ave or from Lakeside Ave. Crossing at 33rd street is scary and dangerous because cars are coming fast from 5 directions.

  10. October 03 2011

    The ped/bike bridge connecting here has bollards so closely placed that it is difficult to go between them to get onto the bridge.

  11. October 03 2011

    Big cracks in this concrete on a steep slope. It is extremely dangerous as cyclists are quickly descending this steep hill and can become unstable directly before having to make a hard right turn.

  12. October 03 2011

    Homeless encampment in this isolated area is dangerous to lone cyclists riding through this area.

  13. October 03 2011

    Trail surface has deteriorated and accumulated sediment from storm swells. It is hard and sometimes not possible to ride this section. Section going under bridge is in even worse condition.

  14. October 03 2011

    The shrubs at this intersection are so large and overgrown that you can't see if someone is coming from around the bend. I have had many close misses and one collision at this location.

    The connecting sidewalk from the end of Huntingdon Ave down to Wyman Park drive ends at a brick wall next to the houses, forcing you to cut across the grass and hop over stones at the end of Huntingdon. This non-motorized connection needs to be improved to allow easy through access.

  16. October 03 2011

    Very bad cracked pavement surface, and potholes on Union Ave from the light rail tracks to Ash Street.

  17. October 03 2011

    Connection between Beechwood Dr and the Park Heights intersection is very hard to navigate and requires getting off your bike to walk over curbs, lots of mud, and a guardrail without any breaks in it. Bollards and a sidewalk curbcut could be much better.

  18. October 03 2011

    Very rough road surface. Parts of the bike lane surface have turned gravel-ly from the pavement cracking so much.

  19. October 03 2011

    The connecting alley/street leading from this street down to Buena Vista Ave is totally destroyed. About 1000 potholes, and you are forced to drive down it because there is no space to turn around.

  20. October 03 2011

    Bike lane has utility/underground construction that has destroyed the surface of the entire stretch of bike lane. Now must ride out in middle of the street.

  21. October 03 2011

    There are always vehicles, sometimes law enforcement vehicles blocking the separated bike lanes. Very dangerous!

  22. October 03 2011

    Gaps in middle of bridge, which can trap bicycle wheels. Parallel storm grates along the side of the bridge.

  23. October 03 2011

    The bike lanes (North and South bound) are suicide lanes. They should be changed to sharrows or widened to adequately handle bike traffic.

  24. October 03 2011

    Uneven pavement, railroad tracks, potholes. This intersection is just an all-around mess.

  25. October 03 2011

    The Belgian block road is deteriorating, making cycling here very hazardous.
