Gaukel Street Pedestrian Promenade

[kwcc]

Who do you think the target audience for the bi-directional cycletrack is?
I'm quite comfortable on the sparsely used streets in that area. I actually find being confined in those cycle tracks claustrophobic and frustrating when you can't get around things. 
Is it true that the maintenance of the cycletrack is $80,000/year/KM?

The cycletrack is targeted at the 66% of people who want to cycle more, but are uncomfortable sharing the road with cars.

I am glad we are going to stop wasting our money building infrastructure for the 6% of people like you and I who are comfortable sharing with some cars, and build something for everyone.

And yeah, it's annoying when vehicles block bike lanes, it's so good that these have curbs to prevent it.

Yes, plowing is expensive, just wait till you hear what we spend on plowing roads.

Could you imagine if it was $80,000/KM?!
I don't know how many KM's of road the city owns but I don't think I can do the math, anyways.
