There are not enough people…

There are not enough people utilizing bike lanes in comparison to motor vehicles. The issue concerning motor vehicle traffic flow is still prevalent and should be solved before introducing more factors.
In my experience with bike lanes, users treat them as an express way, with little attention to signage and their surroundings. Or they do not use them at all due to this attention span. This is isn’t policed and continues to be an issue.
In my opinion as a resident of Hamilton/Dundas, make these cities more WALKABLE. With outdoor patios, third spaces, pedestrian only walk ways. In a more walkable city, there will be a larger sense of community, more support of businesses big or small, promotes healthy living and car parking would be a non issue.
