4SBB - Old Dreams - (Slideshow)

*PRACTICAL PROTEST*

4SBB is now a historical document. Symbolic of the desire to create better bike infrastructure in Los Angeles.

We have freeways, why not have bikeways?

If you watch this set as a slide-show, you will see that symbolism unfold.

We would like to see the CITY now take the initiative and create a REAL improvements on that road, as 4th street is a lovely route.

Step ONE ---

REPAVE THE ROAD.

*WHY 4TH STREET?*

As a road that is already used by cyclists crossing east-west between Hoover/Vermont and La Brea, 4th Street represents an important opportunity for the City of Los Angeles to rise to the challenge to create better, safer streets.

With some minor tweaks to the current infrastructure and some sort of signage system, 4th street could indeed be called a
"Bicycle Boulevard."

The actions taken in this experiment are intended to raise consciousness about the needs of cyclists who bravely face the
sometimes mean streets of Los Angeles.

LEGAL DISCLAIMER:
Every single action taken in this experiment is non-permanent, non-damaging and for the sake ONLY of a photograph. None of those signs are still hanging.

The stencils were done with chalk.
