Traffic planners say that two lanes are necessary there because transport trucks are slow going up the bridge approach. Transport trucks take the whole 3.3 meter lane, and might easily get cut off by impatient drivers. Cyclists are riding in a 1.5 meter cycle lane, between the transport trucks and a concrete wall, so what happens in that situation. I certainly would never ride there, and if I were a praying person, I'd pray for the safety of those who choose too. I'm quite certain that lane makes the road more dangerous, than not having it.
