The irony is if more people use bikes there are fewer vehicles on the road, making traffic better. Why people are so opposed to bike infrastructure is always so confusing to me.

I think people are more up in arms here (germany) about the necessary space to be taken away from cars than about money. No way around it though, since pretty much all urban space is occupied by cars.

I would really like my city to drastically reduce street parking, i think it is really the way to push cars out of the city. Most of my neighbours would sooo hate it though, since it's 'not enough space' for parking as is, even though the streets are completely littered with cars.
