Great article! This sort of thinking is exactly what we need.

A couple of comments:

Jolly Cut - In my opinion, the stout concrete barrier next to the bike lane on the uphill side is an excellent example of a barrier to deploy across the city for protected bike lanes. The only problem is that it is on the wrong side of the bike lane. Sigh...

Also with Jolly Cut, I am under the impression that (as is the case throughout Hamilton) it is illegal to cycle on the sidewalk. It is certainly inappropriate since going downhill at a high rate of speed is intimidating to pedestrians. There is plenty of room to convert one of the car lanes to a protected bike lane.
