Reply to comment by bodhipooh in Caven Point Rd - new pavement, new lines, new bike lanes -- in pristine condition! by PsychologicalAd1153

In that case there is no bike lane in the other direction?

Also wouldn't it be safer to have the bike lane inside the shoulder?

That super narrow thing on the far right of the picture can't possibly be a bike lane. And, the road has to have a shoulder because of the traffic expected to travel there. The shoulder is always placed on the far right lane on roadways that have them. I am almost entirely certain that is a shoulder. And, you definitely don't want the bike lane to be to the far right lane because trucks (or other vehicles) pulling over in an emergency will do so all the way to the right and would block the bike lane.
