I agree about the current bike lanes that have been "added". I walk beside them everyday and while they're a start, they're definetely not the safest thing in the world since cars pretty much treat them like another lane, especially when turning right. Although, if there were cyclists in them people might become more aware.
Any ideas on how our bridges could be adapted to accomodate dedicated, safe bike lanes?
Ruckus, did you look at this past winter's numbers? Yikes!
