He suggested that AC Transit consider sharing the bus only lane with cyclists and there are other places in Alameda that share the lane with cyclists. Commissioner Miley asked staff if that could be reviewed and eventually brought back as a future agenda item. He also asked staff if Alameda Public Works controls the striping.
