This will force cyclists…

This will force cyclists into car lanes, increasing commute times. Ripping out bike lanes will cost a substantial amount of money. Encouraging people into cars will worsen noise and air pollution, further increase traffic, harm small businesses (which benefit from bike lanes [3, 4]) and increase road deaths [2]. Removing the most efficient mode of city transport due to jealousy is a short-sighted, anti-growth and ineffective method of combating traffic borne out of the world's obsession with cars [1]. What's next? Should we remove the pavement too?
