Yesterday I finally saw someone on a bike using our new bicycle lanes downtown. I drive through the downtown area affected several times a day and have not seen a single person on a bike. I did see a lot of traffic disruption and everything moving more slowly. Of course, the one biker I finally saw was also crossing carlanesillegally. These bike lanes were a bad idea.
