Small city in Oregon is paying $1m to remove the bike lane they paid $500k to put in 3 years ago

In 2023, the city reduced the street from three lanes to two and installed protected two-way bike lanes with a state grant intended to improve bike safety. The project cost almost half a million dollars.
Counts of bicycle traffic since the bike lanes were installed showed that traffic increased sixfold. Engineers also didn’t find any major congestion issues with automobiles after the revamp.
