More lanes for cars will not reduce congestion. It has been proven time and again that the solution lies in public and alternate transportation. If you remove bike lanes cyclists will be forced onto the road, meaning fewer cyclists (more cars and congestion) or increased unsafe cycling conditions for cyclists brave enough to ride with cars. This is more unsafe, and typically means cyclists taking the middle of the road or riding positionally like a motorcycle where cars can not pass until it is safe to do so, which also will not help congestion. The solution proposed is not a solution, it is a boneheaded notion that ignores the facts and seems like a feeble attempt to attract stupid voters and cause division.
