2 daysSame with cars, often when you build roads you see a lot more car traffic.
I’ve seen the average driver, do not want to be anywhere around them unless surrounded by steel.

This is why I ride on sidewalks! Lol
(I move slowly and yield to pedestrians)

I wonder if that’s because more people are willing to cycle in protected lanes, or if places with high concentrations of cyclists are more likely to build them.

we find that block groups that installed protected bicycle lanes experienced bicycle commuter increases 1.8 times larger than standard bicycle lane block groups, 1.6 times larger than shared-lane marking block groups and 4.3 times larger than block groups that did not install bicycle facilities. Focusing on mileage, protected bicycle lane mileage installed was significantly associated with bicycle commuter increases 52.5% stronger than standard bicycle lane mileage and 281.2% stronger than shared-lane marking mileage.
The answer to your question hinges on how gradular a “block group” is. It’s probably that safe infrastructure encourages biking.

Pretty sure both opponents and proponents would use this as support for their views
