Removing bike lanes will not solve the problem of gridlock and will only increase the chances of injury and death for cyclists. The idea that bike lanes should only be on secondary roads also doesn't make sense as it is on the major roads that the additional protection of bike lanes is needed.

The only solution to gridlock is to have fewer vehicles on the road and the way to do that is to provide safe alternatives including reliable, frequent transit options and extensive and safe bike lanes.
