To be clear - this is a bike lane on a road with onramps? Uh, what? There aren't even bollards (in the part without an onramp, obviously) or any semblance of protection.


It's the surface street side of the ramp there in the photo. Here's the approx location:

The photo is taken looking towards the freeway, showing the offramp.

A typical bike lane in the US is made out of paint, the lack of protection isn't noteworthy.


The road is a surface street -- a 30 or 35mph divided arterial which goes over a freeway. The ramp is an offramp from a freeway. But yes, there is no protection, which is normal.
