[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That was also a foolish idea the last 100 times you suggested it. Bigger sidewalks are good. Bike lanes are also good. There's no conflict.[/quote] Of course there's a conflict. You can just make the road bigger, add bike lanes, and make the sidewalk larger. It's a zero sum game, and any space given to one means less potential space for the others.[/quote] The only space being proposed for removal is limited "car storage" -The through lanes for cars would actually be expanded - hence not the doom back-ups that the NIMBYs project thanks to the left-turn lanes. -There would be 24/7 parking on one side of the street, including pick-up/drop-off areas for people driving a vacuum cleaner or wanting to grab a pick-up order of food So, no reason to make the road bigger, it is just an adjustment of how the current space is being used to provide more rationality and order.[/quote]
