I recently visited Pittsfield, MA and noticed the bike lane between the curb and a row of parked cars on the main st.

Is this safe (for the cyclist) and now common?

That’s not a bad idea where practical.

“Is this safe (for the cyclist) and now common?”

Many commuters say no. Passengers in cars tend to open doors in front of you.

Sort of depends on how it is designed. If there is a door-width “buffer” between the parked cars and the bike lane then it’s good. Otherwise bike riders have the potential to suffer an abrupt arrested landing into the side of an opened car door.
