  1. The borough should sponsor a crit style bike race and get the sharrows lanes or whatever they're painted on the streets for free
    40 k to paint lines on the street seems very pricey

    1. The West Chester Twilight Criterium is super cool:

    2. Media Borough is already efficient at shutting down streets
      A 10 lap 0.6 mile - 1.2 mile per lap course could overlap where these Sharrows would be but have the race organizers paint the lines on the road not Media Borough Taxpayers

  3. Have many Borough employees and court house workers and those who have to attend the court house ride bicycles ?
