The bike lanes are a dumb waste of money and space - and this is coming from someone who doesn't drive a car and who agrees that too much space is provided for the motor vehicle.

They are mostly empty, and therefore a waste of valuable space.  On the Dunsmuir corridor where I have worked for a long time, you might see one bike for every 60 cars, up that to one bike for every 200 cars during winter.

All this money would have been better spent on better zoning and transit initiatives.  Here we have a housing affordability crisis, and they are blowing money and time on little used bike lanes.  

The City has gone insane.  Demolishing rental housing stock to throw up condo towers that sit half empty, begging for billions for a subway along Broadway while they shut down nearby roads for bikes and increase traffic congestion making the problem worse.  How about forget the bike lanes and buy 100 more buses for Broadway instead of closing down Pt. Grey Road?
