I passed along this comment via the form. Hoping maybe we can get some action on this.
Drain grates with wide longitudinal slots are a danger to bicycle riders. Several have been reported through proper channels but are unfixed after 4-5 years. Many are also recessed such that hitting one would cause loss of control even if the tire did not land in the slot. Nearly all are near edge of road where cyclists ride.
