I hate when existing grass boulevards get replaced with those ugly faux-brick stamped concrete ones. When that change goes in alongside cycling infrastructure is makes people thinks that cycling infrastructure makes their neighbourhood uglier, when it should be the opposite. Planting something native that's free to grow a little more wild would be even better (though somehow the average person has convinced themselves this is ugly and unkempt).
Which, regrettably, doesn't have to be that and also has just as much to do with the new cycling facilities as that the vehicular right of way is the sacred cow that can't be compromised.
