There are plenty of opinions about the way the Bayfront Parkway should be used by motorists, and the improvements that are being proposed for the roadways, bicycle and pedestrian areas, and the iconic connection to State Street.  On our Wednesday program we talked to James Foringer, District Executive for PennDOT’s Northwest Region, and Jill Harry, District Press Officer, about PennDOT’s proposed plans for the most important intersection in Erie County.  Then Michael Fuhrman, writer, lecturer and research consultant, shared his informed opinions as a former project manager for the Destination Erie regional planning process, and finally, Adam Trott, President of Bike Erie’s Board of Directors, gave the perspective of cyclists traveling the Bayfront and Erie proper.
