I am a new adult cyclist, and it has improved many aspects of my life. There have been motorcyclists and cyclists killed in traffic by motorists on my intersecting streets, which have no cycling lanes. I would like to commute but do not feel safe doing so. It would benefit so many people in my area of town to have more cycle lanes, promoting safety and health. Please consider this proposal for high traffic areas; while it seems counterintuitive to reduce gridlock by reducing lanes, providing feasible alternate commuter methods supports the reduction of grid lock in the long run.
