It's also nearly always horribly wrong in different ways — it's said about poor cycle lanes that people won't be attracted to use because of their flaws, and it's said about good cycle lanes because people cycling don't get stuck in traffic jams on them, because bicycles are far more space efficient than cars. https://irishcycle.com/2026/03/13/despite-the-hype-the-size-of-the-fking-cycle-lane-and-theres-not-one-cyclist-passing-in-the-last-15-minutes-it-took-seconds-to-find-out-why/?utm_source=bluesky&utm_medium=jetpack_social
