Removing bike lanes does not…

Removing bike lanes does not only impact those who use them and are not to blame for city gridlock. The money used to remove bike lanes could be invested in better/safer bike infrastructure or into public transit (which are both evidence backed ways to reduce traffic). Not to mention: the time it will take to remove the lanes will create more construction in the city -just like adding the lanes did, but at least one made the city safer and more usable-.
