    Not in Bricktown, not really applicable here.

    There will be fewer cars and less traffic because of the new boulevard. Don't want to "cause out-of-control situation intentionally worse"? Then control traffic by limiting capacity in this high pedestrian area and make the boulevard the preferred route.

    Im all for them narrowing this street if they block it off at Oklahoma Avenue and extend the canal over to MBG.

    Responding to a very old quote here, but I'll say this as a guy that rides a bike a lot(Biker usually refers to motorcycles): Sharrows can work on smaller, slower streets. A sharrow on Hefner road, which is a 45 mph road with no shoulders or turn lane doesn't work. I ride almost daily on a small section of Britton(over 235 for about 1/4 mile) and it's the most nerve wracking part of my day. A high traffic, fast road with no shoulder is a pretty scary place to be. There's a huge difference between 30 and 45 when it's a car about 6 inches from your left hand.
