The rally at Market and Octavia this morning, to protest the MTA's plan to eliminate the bike lane, was quite a party! It ended with the lane being (temporarily) painted neon-green -- a quick prototype of the improvements that should be used to address the problems with illegal right-turners.
There's full coverage on the SFBC Market & Octavia page.
I ride in this lane every day. If they turn this into a merge-with-auto-traffic lane, it's obvious that the illegal right turn problems will simply get worse. I'll end up crossing Octavia somewhere else. Which is probably exactly what the MTA wants.
