Back to the OP focus on Bike Lanes in New York. As someone who works in NYC every day, I see important factors that could be "idiosyncratic" to NYC that must be recognized here. In this city, bike lanes are slowly transforming into Mad Max. It's no longer the domain of ordinary cyclists, calmly making an environmentally friendly commute from point A to point B. Thousands of e-bike food delivery guys fly up the bike lane faster than 25mph. E-scooters transporting riders in full kevlar and full-faced helmets. E-unicycles swerve off the bike lane, onto the sidewalk, and back to the bike lane like freestyle snowboarders. Bicycles are now the minority of bike lane users. Red lights seem optional. Pedestrians are getting hit frequently (sometimes their own fault), but since no one is dying, it's just not a priority for law enforcement. Motorized vehicles don't belong in bike lanes. So, maybe it is a NIMBY situation, but who on this forum would want this? I can appreciate the "micro-mobility" movement, but the Law of Unintended Consequences strikes again. So a neighborhood with narrow streets says "no, we don't want those." Shocking.
