[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I worked in planning and highway and traffic engineering for over 25 years, including serving on planning organizations, serving as an appointee under several governors, and serving numerous planning and engineering organization as officer, executive committee member, et cetera.

The idea that one can or must keep building lane miles to support personal vehicles is, plain and simple, unsustainable.  Communities need alternatives, to include mass transit, ride shares, bicycles, and others - and dependence on personal vehicles must begin tapering off.[/quote]
Sorry, but this is a red herring. Nobody is against options. What makes zero sense is to take the most precious public asset that exists, right of way, and set aside for the exclusive use of a few hundred people. They should instead set it aside for frequent bus transit service. [/quote]

You are uninformed.  It's considerably more than a few hundred people.  And you keep saying "nobody is against options" yet you do not want bike lanes to be one of the options.  [/quote]
