As someone who rides my bike to work everyday, I rely on cycling infrastructure installed in the last 5 years to get to work safely. Additionally, by cycling, I reduce the number of cars on the road by 1, while reducing my carbon footprint. Often times depending on construction and congestion, my commute is shorter on a bike.
It should be entirely up the the municipality on how best to implement bike infrastructure to best serve the community.
If cycling infrastructure along my route to work is removed, I will be force to a) ride in traffic slowing down vehicles and increasing risk to myself or b) pay more money (gas, parking etc) to drive to work and contribute to congestion and climate change.
