Screen Shot 2014-06-17 at 9.03.29 PM

 

Boulder is not new to being at the top of the list. This year Livability placed Boulder #5 on it’s Top 100 Best Places To Live list. This is what they said about Boulder:

“Known as one of the best cities for liberals, Boulder spoils its 100,300 residents with pristine natural surroundings, a strong farm-to-table restaurant scene, and dynamic arts and cultural attractions. Each season brings more things to do in Boulder. Many of the city’s highly active residents plan their days around hikes, rock climbing, mountain biking and fishing. Schools in Boulder rank high, which has helped the city appear on the Top 100 since 2014.”

The City of Boulder is attempting to make our city more bike friendly. Not a bad idea! Recently the controversial idea of “right-sizing” has been implemented on streets such as Folsom. It has been met with a lot of criticism as well as support. What do you think about the idea of “Right-Sizing” Boulder streets?
