Please keep current bike lanes and work with communities/municipalities for all proposed and future ones. These bike lanes are crucial to keep traffic flowing and provide a number of benefits, such as:
1. Safety for those on the sidewalk: as someone who is mostly a pedestrian and transit user, I enjoy having bike lanes because this means cyclists are off the sidewalks and not running into pedestrians.
2. Bikes are not squished in with traffic with bike lanes, which actually improves traffic.
3. They provide an alternative to driving on the roads, which would actually improve traffic because the issue is the number of cars, not lanes available.
Removing bike lanes will not reduce gridlock - it will simply provide people with the perception that they can get around easier in a car, therefore increasing the amount of cars on the roads, and therefore, increasing gridlock.
