VeserrCycle lane paused after thousands of locals object
I know we should all love cycle lanes but the reality for most is they build disconnected stretches at huge expense, that significantly narrow narrow roads, and the you put up with 2 years road disruption and then are inevitably lucky if you see anyone using them. Thats the two big projects round here anyway.
Ah yes, the ol’ “this project is stupid because it isn’t finished yet” argument. 🙄
Yes, actually. I’m not inclined to dig through my comment history to find it, but a while back, somebody posted an image of a street in the UK and complained that hardly anybody used the bike lane. I counted, and pointed out that in that very image, there were more humans in the bike lane than in the car lane. It just looked empty because cars are such a tremendous waste of space.
