The tables on the road were only there for the inauguration day, but bike lane is here to stay.

Look at all the foot traffic for the shops. I have no idea why shops complain about this.

A study in my hometown found that shopkeepers are mostly concerned about their own commute, not decrease of patrons.

That's interesting.

If I was a shopkeeper I would care more about my profits more than if I can park near my shop.

But I guess deliveries would also be more difficult... still I would care more about foot traffic.

I appreciate the info.

Hell, with a bike path in front of me, I'd bike myself to work. Why bother with a car if I have the infra right on my doorsteps
