Hey, could you guys not make it harder for cyclists to exist? Don't you think vehicles have enough space relative to bicycles? Not only are bike lanes already not respected and often neglected by the city but this is openly hostile to those who actively attempt to reduce traffic and 'gridlock' by opting for a less space intensive form of travel... Not only are bike lanes a green initiative, they are cheaper for the average citizen; requiring little upkeep and a small initial investment, they take up less space, are a healthier alternative, their infrastructure require less maintenance and are safer for the public and riders. I enjoy skateboarding and the lanes I require to keep myself safe should not be in jeopardy, imagine if in the middle of the road we parked metallic slabs that must be avoided by the riders, this is what i experience every time i wish to use this public infrastructure and now it is under threat.

Please reconsider actual solutions to recuperate lost time felt by the average citizen. I recommend promotion of remote work and a change of zoning regulations that allow for walk-able cities. Additionally we could re-evaluate the standard threshold for what the government recognize as full time work. These solutions would help keep fewer people on the road for shorter periods of time without reducing their quality of life.
