Didn’t they put bike lanes in so won’t go on the sidewalk?

Adding lots of separated lanes but only a few protected or grade separated lanes (i don't count plastic bollards as protected), but the city is drastically improving it's infrastructure pretty rapidly. But there's lots of streets still without anything

Honestly super disappointed we didn't get a new bike lane on De Grasso when they took away that car lane for portions of it, so easy to just stripe it for bike cuz they already repainted and installed the plastic bollards, nice wide berth from the cars too

That's what I've heard. No reason still to not add a bike lane with the extra space tho
