Does the New Bike Lane Law Make Us Safer?

  • Summary

  • Bike lanes are a contentious issue in the city, especially on Pine and Spruce Streets, the busiest with cyclists. In 2024, Mayor Cherelle Parker signed a law completely banning any vehicle from stopping in a bike lane. Some Center City residents say it's absurd to prevent them from easily accessing their homes, while bicycling advocates say the law saves lives. In a two-part conversation, host Trenae Nuri talks with Nicole Brunet, policy director of Bicycle Coalition of Greater Philadelphia about this change in Philly’s traffic policy.
