Where is the research for this? What studies have shown that adding bike lanes increases congestion?

When a lane is "removed" to add a bike lane, the total number of travel lanes is the same or higher - but now bikes and cars can ride separately, increasing safety and reducing cars getting stuck behind bikes. When safety increases, more people can bike, decreasing the number of people in cars.
