Please do not get rid of…

Please do not get rid of bike lanes. They're essential for community functioning. They reduce traffic in my area and are a green solution to transport. The most marginalized people rely on them to perform their jobs or get to work: those that cannot afford a car, new immigrants, and delivery workers. We all know that the cost of living is getting unbearable, the government does not need to kick the most disadvantaged people down even more. Reducing their options for mobility in such a way will have a disastrous impact on their livelihoods, not to mention their physical safety as they will be forced to bike in high-traffic areas.
