Studies have shown that in populous areas introduction of bike lanes on major thoroughfares allow for a higher volume of people to commute, shop and live in that area. Removing a traffic lane to promote a healthy, sustainable and efficient method of transport is a no brainer.
Additionally, in my own city of Hamilton we struggle with pedestrian safety on sidewalks due to narrow sidewalks and busy streets. Removal of traffic lanes for bike lanes will also help the safety of pedestrians as cars are kept to the center of the road.
