It shows Hamilton isn't serious about cycling infrastructure that they don't even have an official detour route planned.
I'm not sure of the scheduling but if the south side is being done first with the two north side lanes (including the parking lane) being used for cars and the cycle track is getting concrete curbs then how will cars be using two lanes after the south side is complete?
I don't expect you to know the answer but I'll use whatever lane I want, which more than likely means avoiding most of Cannon and the angry drivers. Unfortunately, the best cycling culture-shift that could be made rests in the hands of drivers. I don't see that changing.
