[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Well if low income people get hit biking, let's focus ALX funds on complete street features near those low income areas, not million dollar homes. [/quote] Equity in bike infrastructure is a real issue. But you don't solve it by only building bike infrastructure in low-income areas. Poor people aren't riding their bikes around the block - they're riding their bikes [i]to[/i] things (primarily jobs). I will also repeat, again, that complete streets make EVERYONE safer. Even if you haven't been on a bike since you were 6, and the most walking you ever do is from your car to the coffee shop, complete streets make you safer.[/quote]
