Bicycle lanes being put in on Korean Veterans Boulevard should be complete by the end of the month, according to Metro Public Works.

The new buffered bike lanes are just under half a mile in length, from Hermitage Avenue to South Fourth Street, and will include the bridges over the Cumberland River and interstate.

The conventional bike lanes will be separated from the roadway with a designated buffer space.

Buffered bike lanes are also being put in at Fort Negley Boulevard from Oak Street to Chestnut Street, and a combination of traditional and buffered lanes are being placed on Demonbreun from 12th Avenue South to the roundabout.

Recently completed are a combination of buffered and traditional bike lanes on Hickory Highlands Drive from Bell Road to Rural Hill Road and Gallatin Pike from One Mile Parkway to Anderson Lane. Buffered lanes are also finished on North 14th from Ordway Place to Woodland Street.
