On Monday, January 27 the Village of Wilmette Transportation Commission voted to recommend the following changes to Lake Avenue:

- Instead of a roundabout, implement several lane direction changes at the intersection of Lake, 11th and Wilmette

- Change the Green Bay Trail crossing at Lake to cross 13th Street, then cross Lake Avenue. (Currently the crossing is a diagonal.)

The Commission voted 6 -1 to NOT proceed with proposed bike lanes on Lake from Green Bay Road to Sheridan Road, primarily due to safety concerns

Doug Hoffman and Bruce Miller spoke at the Commission meeting.
