A proposal (Item F.5 on the agenda) to replace the protected lanes with a full length parallel left-turn lane for vehicles is essentially a last-minute political stunt before the November election. This puts all bikes in the vehicle lane slowing cars and making it more difficult for cars to pass. Restricting of Fountain Ave. to reflect the previously studied and approved pilot design with protected lanes outside of the vehicle lanes is slated to start before the end of the year.
The opponents of the project will turn out to the meeting, and it is important that supporters show up as well!
If you support protected bike lanes for Fountain Ave., please provide spoken comments either in person or via telephone, or written comments via e-mail or online (see the agenda and our City Council meeting procedures webpage for instructions).
When: Monday, October 19, 2026 @ 6 p.m.
Where: West Hollywood Council Chambers, 625 N. San Vicente Boulevard
