Expanding bike lanes and bike-sharing programs encourages cycling as a sustainable and healthy mode of transportation. Proponents argue that it reduces traffic congestion, lowers emissions, and promotes a healthier lifestyle. Opponents argue that it can be costly, may take away road space from vehicles, and might not be widely used.

Yes, and a real bike lane with barriers is better than a painted 'bike lane' that's almost worse than no bike lane at all.
@9SD2L7G6mos6MO
Yes, but bicycles have to follow the same laws and restrictions and any other vehicle such as stop signs and lights
@8BF4MNG 5mos5MO
Yes, but it should be done on the local level. I live in an area that has bike lanes that are rarely used. Some would say this is a waste of money. Other locations have a higher need/want for it and thus should look into implementing.
@9TRXR645mos5MO
Yes by building dedicated bike lanes not eliminating existing car/truck lanes or by encouraging safe bike traffic on parallel roads.
@ProudJew 5mos5MO
We need a transportation revolution that puts people and the planet first. By investing in safe cycling infrastructure, expanding public transit, and promoting alternative transportation options, we can create healthier, more sustainable, and more equitable communities. It's time for a balanced approach that prioritizes the needs of all road users while ensuring responsible use of taxpayer dollars.
@6V4692V 5mos5MO
Yes, as long as the cycling infrastructure is built reasonably to where it does not cause problems to drivers and pedestrians.
@9S5QDLL6mos6MO
i believe that roads in general need to be redesigned so that going places always doesn’t require a car. other countries have a nice roadmap to where everything is accessible. i also think this would allow more youth to spend time outside as going out would be a lot easier as opposed to having an adult drive you.

In cities like mine not everything is that close so you kind of need to drive, but in big cities, it makes sense and should.
