[Lincolnparkdc] Pylons added to original design Kentucky @ East Capitol

[linda meixner]

 I hesitated to join these comments, as I'm not directly affected by the proposed changes (living on E. Capitol SE). I have absolutely no expertise in this matter, but for my less than 2-cents worth ... 
I find all these pylons to be distracting while driving, having the opposite effect of promoting safety.  Perhaps an easier solution might be just painting all the bike lanes one VERY bright color (red, green, etc.) so it would be uniformly obvious to all across the city. I believe this was depicted in one of those videos sent around ages ago. This would include all the areas without the dreaded (and ugly) pylons and except for maintenance (repainting), fairly inexpensive. Linda13th & E. Capitol

 If four families ask for NO pylons, will it be given the same ( or 4 x the same) consideration as one person in the neighborhood asking for pylons?Asking for a friend.

Let’s please not forget the pylons on Kentucky @ East Capitol were not part of the original design & were added at the suggestion of one resident. DDOT says the advisory bike lanes have proven to slow traffic so adding pylons (& eliminating 20’ of curb space) is also suspect. 
The streets of DC look as if Santa gave DDOT workers bedazzle guns with pylons for Christmas (instead of sequins, beads & glitter) and they are bedazzling everything in sight!
