I do not support this bill. Cities should be free to decide what is best for their residents, and to give them whatever transportation choices those residents want. ALL transportation choices need to be safe.
As a driver I don't like the unpredictability of bikes and pedestrians, and want them separated from me.
As a cyclist I am extremely uncomfortable on roads with no protected bike lanes. The painted bike gutters are not safe because drivers park in them, and inattentive drivers drift into them.
Lastly as a pedestrian I don't want cyclists on the sidewalk.

I WANT my city implementing protected infrastructure for both bikes and pedestrians. My grocery store is less than 1km away, but I drive there because the alternatives in my immediate area are terrible. For such a short trip I should never feel obligated to get in my car.
