I realise Dahlia is not like Wyse Road; the level of congestion is very different, but the "bike lanes cause congestion" argument falls a bit flat for me.
I can see the same critics saying "LRTs cause congestion." But maybe I'm wrong.

Agreed, and let’s face it, it is cars that cause congestion, bikes just keep moving.
Vancouver has a great bike network, we could have the same here.
