Well lets look at this proposition in a longer term. Eventually a neighborhood may be raised to build a rail service on the Peninsula. So the question then becomes if Bike lanes are OK to take Roadways then Railways should be able to take neighborhoods. The Peninsula is only so big and density is increasing.What will it be in 20,50 or 75 Years?
I think a far more relevant question is when the planned bike lanes are fully implemented will the Halifax Cycling coalition allow themselves to prove the Business, Safety and frequency case of the infrastructure? Will the same lobbyist's stand down when the build it and they will come theory proves paltry. What defines success for the investment and BTW virtue signaling bunk is not a parameter of success. Who and exactly what will define "success"?
