I live in easy biking distance of some great stores I'd like to visit more often. That is...assuming there was a bikeable road to that destination. Gigantic highways have basically formed a death wall for bikers and pedestrians keeping them out of fun destinations around my area. If you travel across to a particular crossing and wait half an hour, you might be graced with a cross-walk that sometimes works, while 80 cars honk at you to cross more quickly.
Really hope this turns out well. It'd pay for itself, since those highways are money black holes anyway.
