Most parents would not let their children bike on Strasbourg, and certainly not make the left onto the crescent. And it cuts off about 3 minutes from the 7-10 minute walk to the park.
Like I said, the meaningful change is if you make this improvement in every neighbourhood for every amenity.
And the motor vehicle equivalent (paving every street, in front of every house, to a full 2-lane width, and then plowing it every winter) happens without question, even though it costs way more.
