I wouldnt bike on that painted bike lane across a right turn slip lane designed to make cars slow down as little as possible coming off the freeway

There should be a protected bike lane in the median with a dedicated signal where the diamonds cross

Painted bike lanes are just Dodge Ram kill zones.

Those aren’t bike lanes. They are merging guides for the cars. So yeah it’s still lacking but better than a cloverleaf.

Edit: sorry, there are bike lanes. I hadn’t noticed that there were two colors on my mobile

Since there are traffic lights, I personally would no be worried about taking my bike through
