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?
