Descrizione
Every morning on my bike ride to work cars will pull in front of me and park directly in the bike lane in front of the Wake County Justice Center, which has no parking signs the entire length of the curb. The security guard stationed outside of the building has never once told cars to move. Last week there was a box truck unloading for at least 10 minutes and the security guard did not tell the driver of the truck to move out of the bike lane. I confronted the security guard about it and he told me it is his job to get cars to move but that they never listen to him. I asked why he doesn't say anything to the drivers parking in the no parking zone/bike lane and he said if I had an issue to take it up with the folks inside the building. Please create new signage or a physical barrier or replace the security guard with one who will keep drivers from cutting off bikers and making one of the few designated bike lanes in Raleigh the most dangerous part of my commute.

I see it almost every day. Sometimes it's even law enforcement themselves and I've also seen LEOs sitting on the benches outside while there are 3 or 4 cars stopped in the bike lane! I see it between 4:30 and 5:00 pm, but it happens pretty much all day too.
There are "No Stopping or Standing" signs, but people either don't read them, ignore them or don't understand that it means you can't sit in the bike lane while you wait for someone to run in the building for a second or wait to pick them up.

The bike lane there is just a poor design. Look at this street view showing a car door blocking the bike lane. It is bad to put a bike lane right up against on street parking. Someday some poor cyclist who thinks the bike lane is safe may end up being thrown into traffic and killed.
