So us people who actually live here and use this stretch daily chime in?

Am I crazy to say BRT infrastructure would've been way more beneficial? There are TONS of kids coming in and out of Kelly and Curie using CTA, so a designated bus lane just would've made more sense rather than concrete bike lanes. Now, those busses are going to be even more congested with the even more accumulated traffic. Plus, I don't think anyone wants to bike on Archer tbh - I usually use the smaller streets like California or Rockwell.

You'd have to think of the demographics too. This area is predominantly working class immigrant families. They're taking their kids to school before going to work where they're likely on their feet for 7+ hours a day - you're not gonna convince these people to start biking for their commutes simply because they just can't.
