This should be the standard in greater LA.

Santa Monica can do it. Why can’t Los Angeles?

    The only criticism I have is that the bicycle path is too narrow to let another person pass. You’d ideally want a bicycle path of at least 2.5 m wide, not just 1 m.

    3.5 m would be even better, then you can have a couple bike next to each other, with another passing.

      Pass in the same direction? I assume that’s what you mean, since for the opposite direction you’d want another lane on the other side of the road.

        Yeah same direction. Though bike pathes also exist where you pass in the opposite direction, on roads where you only have one bicycle path.

        Same direction indeed. If there’s somebody slow ahead of you. Looks pretty narrow with tight turns, but it’s probably better than biking between the cars.
