This proposal is a terrible decision. The number of cyclists is only low because of the poor average quality of bike infrastructure across the network. Looking at the rest of the world, it's obvious that bike infrastructure will be used heavily if it's well connected and high quality. Adding an extra lane will add extra space for cars, but reducing gridlock isn't going to happen if everybody needs to drive. If the numbers of cyclists increased, it would have a far larger impact on reducing the number of cars than adding this useless extra lane. This requires adding more bike infrastructure in the area, not reducing what we already have.

Please reconsider this bill.
