Re: Anti-car democrats are a road hazard

The objective is to reduce pollution, reduce traffic congestion, and improve public safety by diverting people from their cars to bicycles and public transportation. Getting rid of bike lanes, and making streets more vehicle-friendly again (streets that in many cases were originally designed to only accommodate pedestrians, bicycles, and streetcars I might add), impedes that objective, so a busway would be the logical solution in this case for the issue of bike lanes slowing down buses.

If the effect that bike lanes have on bus speed isn't being overstated, then it sounds like we're at a somewhat obstinate impasse.
