Good to know! Thanks! I did know that Isleville was a bikeway/had a bike lane or 'something' but I never thought of it as a 'zone'. Maybe the 'Local Street Bikeway' terminology/jargon got it the way of me knowing that it was something different or that I don't often drive in that area. Can you confirm for me that no on street parking was lost? As I'm typing this I'm thinking that a 'ZONE' should require no physical alterations just only behaviour differences.
