Belmont Bike Lanes on the Alameda de Las Pulgas: Belmont recently installed bicycle lanes on the Alameda De Las Pulgas in front of Carlmont High School. To provide space for a bike lane traveling in both directions, one of two north-bound traffic lanes was removed, reducing north-bound traffic to one lane. The south-bound lane was already a single lane.

This has caused a huge uproar from parents driving their kids to high school and motorists who use the Alameda as their commute route to Ralston and 280. They complain this has increased traffic congestion and travel time. There is now a great deal of public pressure to remove the bike lanes and restore the street to its original configuration.
