I used to drive to Toronto every day, usually down University Ave, but sometimes down Bay St. I can tell you for free that traffic got much worse on University as a result of those bike lanes.

The destinations argument doesn't really work, since you can easily bike on the road for a short distance to get to where you're going, or have a short walk.

They can't safely bike on the road for a short distance without a lane for them.
