Is it though? Nobody is dropping hundreds of millions on a single piece of cycling infrastructure that will serve a small proportion of the city. Cycling infrastructure is cheap to build, cheap to maintain, and gets cars off the road, which is a benefit to drivers.
As for rewarming old hissy fits about how cyclists don't follow the rules of the road, that's a well beaten horse. Get off it. Compromise is possible and constructive, and a cyclist never killed anyone. Should we suspend all road spending because some drivers break the rules?
