I was not able to post these photos of the westbound bike lane along Ortigas Avenue Extension immediately after I shared photos of the eastbound bike lane. The bike lanes, as can be seen from the photos, are painted green.

Bike lane approaching Brookside (Sunset Drive) with the CK Square as a landmark

Still a big issue for bike lanes is the presence of electric and communication poles/posts that have not been relocated after so many years since Ortigas Avenue had been widened.

These photos were taken before the solar studs were installed to delineate the bike lanes and make them more visible at night or when its dark.

Also, challenges and concerns for cyclists are parked vehicles and those maneuvering from the various establishments along the road. This photo pretty much captures those two concerns – a parked UV Express van and a truck maneuvering out of a store occupying the bike lane.

Bike lane in front of the Ortigas Hospital just outside the Brookside Gate 1 and near Cainta Junction

More photos of the bike lanes soon!
