Removing bike lanes will not alleviate traffic congestion; instead, it could exacerbate the problem. Bike lanes provide a safe and efficient alternative for commuting, reducing the number of cars on the road. When people have access to safe biking infrastructure, they are more likely to choose cycling over driving, which directly reduces vehicle traffic. By removing these lanes, we force more individuals back into cars, further increasing congestion, pollution, and strain on existing roadways. Maintaining bike lanes is a cost-effective way to support sustainable transportation, improve overall traffic flow, and contribute to a cleaner environment.
