  1. They held an open house thing for the 4-laning of Forum and I went. The concepts looked about as bad as I thought. No separated bike lanes and no traffic calming. I asked about traffic calming and they're like "we're adding roundabouts to the intersections of Woodrail and Katy, that should slow them down". Another one told me to just use the sidewalk when I ride my bike. I'm super glad this city allows it, but then why not just make mixed-use paths instead?

    Also, there was some country club NIMBY complaining about how this will affect his property value. It just shows what kind of people go to these, so when your city holds one, GO TO IT.
