In our September 2026 issue of The Pedal Post (eNewsletter), Bike Fort Collins posed the question: “Have you experienced conflict or felt unsafe while traveling through the intersection of North Taft Hill Road and West Mulberry Street?”
Thank you to those who responded. Below is a recap of the results.
WHAT HAPPENED?
In addition, for those who reported conflict, we asked them to describe their experience. Here is a sampling of the responses we received:
- “Turning East onto Mulberry from North side of intersection.”
- “Cars driving north and turning right onto Mulberry St hardly ever make a complete stop and check for pedestrians.”
- “North / Southbound feels unsafe.”
- “Lack of bike lanes on Taft.”
- “Was hit by a car right before the intersection heading north on taft.”
HOW CAN IT BE IMPROVED?
Finally, we asked respondents how they thought the intersection/facility could be improved. Here is a sampling of the responses we received:
- “Barriers like they have on Mulberry.”
- “Marked green bike lanes, posts.”
- “Add bike lanes.”
- “Protected bike lane.”
Again, thank you to all who responded—and for sharing their experiences. Stay tuned for additional surveys inquiring about other intersections and bicycle facilities.
