I do not know the answer, but this again raises an

issue which I have raised before, about us OBRA

members also joining the Bicycle Transportation

Alliance.



www.bta4bikes.org



OBRA is a bike racing org, the BTA is a bicycle

advocacy organization, that deals with issues like the

one you raise.



Membership in the BTA costs less than what some (most)

of us spend on one nice tire or a weeks worth of entry

fees.



For the law reading types see ORS 366.514 as well.

attached bike lanes have not, or worse yet, the seam

where the new

pavement ends runs down the middle of the bike lane.





I called ODOT regarding this and the representative

told me that their

understanding is that the bike lane is part of the

road and when the

road is repaved, the bike path should be paved as

well.



Has anyone ever looked into this issue or talked to

other governmental

officials?
