If they widened the roads to be able have space to make the lane id say it is. If they just threw it in there and made a uncomfortable spot to bike id say not.
And millions of drivers would disagree. The study is clear. If a driver doesn't fear hitting something they mostly disregard painted lanes. Without protection, bikers fear the lane with good reason.
I didnt say they wouldn't. But its still infrastructure if they widened the roads for it.
But since automobiles use it and bicyclist don't, the point is that makes it more car infrastructure not bicycle infrastructure
And important that the bike lane doesn't go over sewer grates 🤦
That sir is not a bike lane hahaha.
