[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]An scientific study shows that bike sharing in DC has actually reduced congestion: https://www.itskrs.its.dot.gov/2020-b01452 This is an interesting counterpoint to those who claim that bike lanes have the opposite effect.[/quote] Except the physical changes increase congestion, which is what they are designed to do, by over 20% so it's still a large net negative.[/quote] Where are you getting 20% from? They certainly aren't allocating 20% of road space to bike lanes.[/quote] True. Also true is that, in many cases, the installation of bike lanes that remove parking will reduce congestion. People going in and out of parking spaces holds up all of the traffic behind.[/quote]
