It's funny because this has been one of the intentions of Vancouvers transportation planning. Encourage people to use more efficient modes of transportation like biking and transit. Guess it's working.

I really wish I could find the study, but I recall there was a study by Larry Frank (or at least cited by him at one point) that found that although the number of cars that were entering downtown decreased due to bike lanes and transit etc., the drivers commute times stayed the same, while the number of total people entering downtown also increased.
