City: spends 100k out of $1B of transit budget on installing barriers for separated bike lanes.

My city painted lines in the road, and people still bitch about it 3 years later, the lines are almost gone from fading and chipping, and cycling is still dangerous due to some traffic specifically targeting them for harrasment.

Paint is not a substitute for infrastructure.

Yeah, there's an especially shitty part of a city where used to live, that part is always mostly traffic jams and the bike lanes painted on the road side are just used as a parking lot for expensive cars 🤦‍♂️

People are freaking out about that in my city while the $500 million dollar highway interchange right next to it gets no attention.
