The Milwaukee/Wells (City Hall) northbound platform floats in the middle of N. Milwaukee St. A bike lane was intended to go on its right, protecting cyclists from cars and the tracks, but the lane was never installed. A sign still directs riders into a space striped for no parking and vehicles frequently block the northbound exit. A DCD official told Urban Milwaukee the platform would have been designed differently if they knew the lane wouldn't be installed. Photo taken August 17th, 2018 by Jeramey Jannene.
