If the planners and advocates could not convince Fred Risser to vote of
this proposal (an avid cyclist, daily bicycle commuter, oldest and most
experienced and bicycle friendly member of the legislator) it likely
wasn't a well thought out or presented proposal.

FYI:
State committee nixes plans for contra-flow bike lane on Capitol Square
http://isthmus.com/news/news/Contra-Flow-Bike-Lane-nixed/
I was at a meeting with City staff this afternoon, and they broke the
news to us that i in the story above. So when Mifflin is reconstructed
this year, we aren't getting a west-to-east bike lane.
However, the reconstruction will bee done in such a way that if the
state ever changes its mind -- maybe some more bike-friendly and more
livable-cities-oriented members of the State Capitol and Executive
Residence Board (who, strangely also control the Capitol grounds and
the one lane on the inner loop that is state property) -- a
counterflow lane could be added at a later time.
