And heck, the precedent of the bicycle lane already shows that they could potentially go along with reduced capacity.

Maybe that's why the westbound viaduct is always jammed up during rush hours, or when there are events at the stadiums these day? I don't seem to remember that being the case before the bike lane installation. Removing the viaducts would make that way worse when all the traffic is now channeled to the streets below, not to mention that more residents need to deal with it literally in front of their residences.
