Yes, it makes me worry about future expansions of bike lanes.

Over the last decade or so the city has expanded a network of new bike lanes, making biking saver and more attractive. I'm wondering, if this roll-back and the celebration of it shoes a new trend away from new bikelanes.

It's an absolute shame they're removing the bike lane in Stanley Park. Such an unnecessary move.
