Suggest a traffic light LOVR is a heavily traveled road and the Turri intersection is challenging as the traffic on LOVR travels at a high speed

I see comments about a protected bike/walk corridor but nothing constructive. The wide shoulders on both sides offer sufficient width to shift two lanes of auto traffic to the N or S, then the bike/walk section can be established. There must be 16-20 ft of combined usable space with both road shoulders.

Sight distances appear to be reasonable along this section for both SB and NB cycling/auto interactions. Even though the shoulder is narrow, the autos have better sight distance clearance and can pass safely.

Section of SW bound road, from Sea Wind Way to the first overlook turnout is the worst section of the road for cycling. NE bound is OK, take the lane, coast 25-35 mph. SW bound, even riding the fog line is hairy since there is a dropoff from erosion, shoulder not maintained. Even if cement treated AB shoulder is installed it would give a respectable width for cycling. NE bound side is very narrow too, but bike speed does not annoy auto traffic.

install rumble strips the entire length of this road so that cyclists might get a few seconds notice before they are killed by inattentive drivers

A fully separate bike path all along LOVR

I bike LOVR from Foothill to the Memorial Park around 8:30-10:30 every weekday morning. A separate cyclist/pedestrian lane is unnecessary. Some shoulder sections of LOVR should be widened so the bike lane is consistently wide enough. A rumble strip might help. And as others note, the cracks and road debris on the shoulder are persistent safety issues for cyclists. Cars and trucks seem very good about staying off the shoulder so optimizing it is sufficient. Please, no barriers or curbs like SLO.

It would be so much safer if LOVR from Los Osos to SLO could have a separate biking and pedestrian pathway, not part of the main roadway. It would also promote exercise to have a safe route to bike and walk on.

This Bridge has a corrugated surface that makes a very loud rumbling sound as cars pass over. I live clear down on Palomino and can hear it all night. I feel sorry for people living right behind it. Resurface the bridge for a smother surface!

There is a 45mph sign here that very few slow down for! A Radar type speed limit sign here may help slow people down.

Lower the speed limit on LOVR in Los Osos. This is still a residential area on this part of the road.

The entire passing lane (both sides) needs to be eliminated and the speed limit lowered. Widening the road will not remedy the problems of speeding and accidents, as it ultimately funnels into one lane in Los Osos anyway.

There should be a middle turning lane for the entire stretch of what is now a passing lane. It is dangerous for the homes and businesses here as drivers regularly speed to pass. I'm sure the number of speeding tickets and accidents here support this.

This is where many drivers begin to pass other cars already going 55-60 mph. From Turri Rd to the end of the passing lanes speeding and accidents are common. The passing lanes should be eliminated and a middle turn lane for the homes and businesses should be installed. The speed limit should also be lowered to 45 mph.

Where is the crash data to justify spending this tax money? What a waste of money and time fixing something that isn?t broke. You guys are that bored spending our tax money???

We need to somehow educate motorists that it isn't "nice" to stop for a cyclist waiting to cross LOVR (for instance to or from the post office). I've had motorists scream at me for not taking them up on crossing the street illegally while they're possibly going to be hit from behind because they've stopped for no legal reason in order to be "nice". I've almost been hit more than once due to folks like this.

Pecho is fine for cyclists down by the Monarch Grove housing development, but all the way from there to the PG&E land, motorists are a real threat to cyclists -- there just isn't enough room on the road for a cyclist, a passing car, & oncoming traffic.

A bike trail separated from the road seems well worth it for the entire length from foothill to Los Osos.

Roundabout at LOVR & Foothill.
Crazy that I should have to wait 4-5 lights to get thru Foothill headed west to Los Osos every work day . Especially when all other directions have no traffic backup.Bike lane separate from emergency lane that tractors drive down and leave huge clumps of dirt. Need to be cleaned more frequently during raining/muddy season. And many cracks in pavement within emergency/bike lanes currently that catch tire and toss riders.
Thank you!

Having just a wide bike line is not enough for the safety of cyclists. The road is commonly used by both work commuters and recreation cyclists. Ideally there is a barrier between cyclists and cars.

This bend near Turri is terrifying as an eastbound cyclist, especially in the morning during rush hour. Cars constantly drift into the right shoulder in the curve. A rumble strip would be a good addition here.
