BELLINGHAM, WA (MyBellinghamNow.com) – Want to give your thoughts on Bellingham’s newly updated downtown bike lanes?

The City of Bellingham has opened an online survey to get feedback on the future of the Holly Street corridor, which extends from Ellis to Broadway.

Residents can offer input on what should be prioritized in the final design, whether it be parking, public transit, safety or traffic flow.

My Bellingham Now previously reported that the city installed interim safety upgrades to Holly Street earlier this month after reviewing public comments.

Holly’s parking-protected bike lanes were swapped out for traditional buffered lanes seen more commonly around the city.

Input on the final design is being accepted until September 30th.

The last phase of construction on Holly Street is expected to conclude in summer 2027.
