We need more bike lanes which will improve traffic flow!

A reduction of bike lanes (or limiting the ability for the city to install them) will:
-Worsen traffic congestion, not reduce it. The government’s own experts have consistently said that bike lanes are not a cause of gridlock.

-Make roads more dangerous. Protected bike lanes prevent serious injuries and deaths for people biking, walking, and driving.

-Threatens other uses of road space that communities rely on, including transit priority, safe crossings, patios, curbside access, and school streets.

-Undermine climate goals and public health by locking cities into car-dependent street designs.

Thank you!
