In my travels around the city in the last 5 years I have observed a significant increase in foot and bicycle traffic. I have seen bicyclists in areas of the city that I would think twice about driving my car. One of my barometers is the number of people walking their dogs which has increased considerably. I am a "car" guy, but I think the bicycle lanes are exactly what is needed. Its time to stop crying about the lanes and get used to driving with them. Also the lanes seem to be cutting down on the number of those jaywalking but time will tell on that headache.
