Reader Shawn took this photograph of misspelled writing from the 15th Street bike lane project:

Oops! You can also see a taxi parked in the bikeway at the far left.

I alerted DDOT when Jewdishoowary Square noted the problem on Wednesday. Hopefully they can get the contractor to fix this error quickly.

Update: Commenter Park View pointed out that that’s not the only error; another intersection gets “yield” right but applies that instruction to drivers making a “left trun.” I’ve notified DDOT again.
