The government shouldn't…

The government shouldn't increase red tape and bureaucracy, to slow down local governments trying to increase transportation options like protected bike lanes. I use bike lanes every day to compute to work and for leisure and consider them essential infrastructure like sidewalks. We need to guarantee a baseline for safety and options for vulnerable road users of all physical ability, instead of increasing the amount of cars on the streets. When I do drive, I would much prefer cyclists to be in their own protected lanes. Bikes lanes provides public transit such as subway and street car the last mile connection for commuters from home to public transit and from transit to their final destination.

I support safe bike infrastructures.

Thank you for your time.
