That intersection is AWFUL. I avoid it. I hope the cyclist is ok.

There's also like a gajillion ruts in between all those concrete slabs, which doesn't help

Damn it. Anxiously awaiting news.

Yikes! I just rode my bike on Penn Ave from East End, but when as I approached Penn & Highland saw cop lights flashing, so went instead through Penn Center Circle.
Hope all is fine

FWIW, I'm pretty sure another cyclist was hit on Penn Ave. yesterday, between E. Liberty and 5th Ave, IIRC. Driving by, I saw a cop w/ flashing lights (actually stopped going counter-traffic), a stopped car, and a cyclist on the side of the road. Fortunately, the cyclist (male, milk crate on front) seemed fine. Weirdly around the same time--I'd say 6:30 PM.

Just so sad about this That whole stretch of Highland between Center and Home Depot is a disaster yet such an important connector that I have trouble avoiding it.

I try to avoid this as best I can, but it's hard to do without taking a massive detour.

Highland from Center to ELB is like real-world frogger.

Usually on a stretch like that, I would just get on the sidewalk, but so many pedestrians there, it would make me a royal adams apple.
Often I stop and wait on the side of the road for a break in car traffic. Makes it slow though. And doesn't totally stop the risk.
