I believe that, at this point in our lives, we do not have to spare anymore space to cars. Yes, I know that we have to get around from one place to another efficiently and roads are the only way to move about via motor vehicles. However, those aren't the only means of transportation and I feel as though others have not been revered as much as they should have. This is why I can look at a city bike road being built and shake my head if it's being halted.
News stories speaking about protesting groups may typically have legitimate reasons to go about cases. The article that I had read on Global Edmonton is one that makes me shake my head, especially since I support the creation of city bike lanes. Residents within the Edmonton area had voiced their concerns about this movement, believing that it would do nothing short of hindering drivers on the road. It's a conflict in which companies such as Linus Bike would offer support to the cycling community.
One of the specific concerns about these roads being built is a reduced parking space. According to the article, this endeavor could potentially create a 15 minute loading zone if this manages to go through. It's also been said that the people were not informed of this beforehand, therefore making it difficult for them to airing their concerns in the initial stages. I understand that there may be worry with something as big as construction, but I don't feel like there should be any concern at all.
I think that, in any typical stories, the construction of roads like these would actually be something that would garner more support than anything else. Everyone wants a good way to travel about and I think that this is a fine job to take on. People want these roads to come about so that, when they ride their bicycles, they don't have to deal with constant traffic jams and other instances which cars find themselves in constantly. Hopefully this idea continues on because the potential it has is stunning.
As someone who rode his bicycle about constantly until it was stolen, I would have loved to see a city bike road system come about where I live. Sometimes it's difficult to keep your sights on everything, scanning your surroundings while you continue to ride on. I just don't want to see a lack of support come about if this idea is proposed. If it happens, however, you better believe that I will be the first one to jump onboard to see it occur.
