Cedar Rapids Tests Urban Shoulders on Four Streets
Cedar Rapids crews painted 6 miles of urban shoulders on 29th Street NE Cottage Grove Avenue SE 34th Street SE and Pioneer Avenue SE to widen usable space for pedestrians cyclists and parked vehicles. City spokeswoman Emily Breen notes the lanes narrow widths curb speeds and improve safety while sidewalks remain under discussion. Residents like Dee Anderson praise the plan as a cheaper middle ground and a step toward safer, shared road use.
