[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]More parking. Get rid of bike lanes no one uses [/quote] Yeah, that will make DC an even nicer place. Widen the roads, increase speed limits and make it easier for suburbanites to drive around DC. Brilliant. Turn DC into a car sewer dump like GA Ave near the Beltway.[/quote] If you think of streets in a city as analogous to the blood vessels in your body, getting rid of parking spaces and replacing them with bike lanes is like giving a city arteriosclerosis. It makes it a lot harder for the vast majority of people to get around the city. People aren't going to switch to bikes just because there's bike lanes. They'll just stop going to the parts of the city where it's a pain in the ass to drive or park. I know I haven't been to Georgetown in years because getting around Georgetown fking sucks. How does it help anyone to have a balkanized city?[/quote]
