I would strongly advise you…

I would strongly advise you not to proceed with the removal of bike lanes. It will immediately fill up with traffic and lead to next to zero gains in terms of time saved for cars. Bikes take up way less space than cars and we should be encouraging their use. People start to bike to work, who wouldn't have otherwise, because the bike lanes are there. This bill moves us backwards and is just frankly embarrassing in terms of where it positions are city for intracity travels, not to mention the use of tax dollars for the removal process.
