Salt Lake's "Copenhagen Left"

Hot on the heels of the announcement that Salt Lake will be getting a Bike Share in 2013, I found this video.

Salt Lake has been doing a major facelift to its bicycle infrastructure over the past few years.


Along with the sharrow lanes that have multiplied - and now are on several streets in the downtown area, they painted a "Copenhagen Left" box at the intersection of Main St, and 200 S - an intersection that does not have a left hand turn.


Problem is, I don't think many people know what to do with this green box. Thankfully, BikeSLC has a YouTube video that does a great job of demonstrating how it works.
