[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I bike, I walk, I drive, and I take the bus.  I support safe and efficient modes of transit.  But, we have to build the transit infrastructure for future--whatever we want that to be--not the past or the status quo.  [/quote]
Agreed. We need to build a public transit system for the future. That’s why prioritizing bikes over transit on our limited right of ways makes zero sense. [/quote]

There will be plenty of room in the limited right of ways for bicycles AND buses, which are both space-efficient modes of transit, once we decide to stop making cars (driving and parking) the priority and everything else an afterthought. [/quote]

Bike lanes are a terrible use of resources. All that space and billions of dollars spent on something that only a miniscule fraction of the public uses. Better to focus on getting people back on the subway. [/quote]

That sounds great, let's focus on the subway.  Doesn't mean that we can't also give people who want to bike a scrap of the public land being used by drivers.  [/quote]
