The construction of bike lanes at the expense of vehicle lanes, while potentially disruptive for those driving personal vehicles, presents an opportunity for and encourages modes of transport that are more efficient and environmentally friendly. People will and should be encouraged to bike to nearby destinations and take public transit (especially if HOV lanes facilitate it), which will contribute to the reduction of greenhouse gas emission, and in the case of biking, can improve the health of those partaking.
