Over on the bikepgr.org message board there is some interesting discussion of bike related line-items and projects. Here is some of what they're discussing.
$3M -- mon warf switchback connection
$200K -- thermo-plastic bike/ped paint line-item in the pavement budget
$380K -- bike infrastructure
$550K --Washington and Allegheny River Boulevard Multimodal Path
$300K -- Trolley Trail Phase 2, West End
$130K -- Emerald View Park: Fort Pitt Tunnel Trail Connection
And other infrastructure projects to note:
* Replacement of a bridge in West Ohio St/Ridge Ave (2017)
* Reconstruction of Smithfield St from Forbes to 6th Ave (2017-2020)
* Replacement of the Swinburne Bridge (2017-2022)
* Penn Ave work from Graham St to Evaline St (2017-2019, with the bulk of the work in 2019)
* Reconstruction of the South Negley bridge over the Busway (2018-2019)
* Replacement of the Charles Anderson Bridge, which carries BOTA from Oakland into Schenley Park. It appears it’s coming down in 2020, and the city will spend a cool $37.6 million to replace it.
