The funny thing is that this has already been perfected for years in many European and Asian locales... the should just send a few of its engineering personnel over to observe, learn and quit doing stuff like signing a bike lane as though it's a motor expressway.

I think bikes are supposed to cross the sidewalk and get on the asphalt path. But there's nothing letting bikes know where to go, or letting pedestrians know there's a bike path crossing the sidewalk. Lots of near misses there, and lots of bikes just get on the sidewalk or go the wrong way down Assiniboine...
