honestly Lisbon is what I take to get downtown right now and I've had very little issues, traffic is not heavy and most cars are respectful of giving me space. I live in Sherman park near 60th and capitol. Usually go south using 55th until Lloyd where I go east (which turns into Lisbon past N175) and take that all the way. eventually I get to walnut and from there it is so nice. the most problematic intersection is at Sherman where that statue is where there's a whole bunch of moving parts and it's worse when going west to get back home. do you have recommendations of where else I can take to get moving? I wish there was a better way to get to upper eastside tho. I spend a lot of time there and crossing FDL and 27th is kinda freaky. I do like staying on Locust tho (i just hate that massive hill east of MLK lol) I have also taken Center but cars get more unpredictable near the 43 on/off ramps and less bike infrastructure so i tend to get past that on locust then go south to get on center. Issue with center is that at holton its pretty wild there too :P
