[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Look around you. The "car lobby" has literally designed almost ALL transit infrastructure for cars. I think you can spare a few feet for bike lanes. [/quote] [b]Start getting all the people who live outside of Alexandria (Fairfax, PWC, Maryland, etc) to start biking through Alexandria instead of driving through it as part of their commute and then let’s talk. [/b] I believe the reported percentage is around 40% of drivers during any one rush hour are Not living or working in Alexandria, they’re just passing through for their commute. And zipping around side streets now that we have Waze and other traffic apps. And rush hour in this region is much longer than other areas due federal work schedules. So are these long commuters just going to bike? Doubt it. [/quote] People won't bike unless it is safe. With this lane, you will see an uptick.[/quote]
