The cost of which will be recovered by a tax made on each and every bicycle owner that uses the facility." No, the demand is from car owners who want to take the roadway for themselves. I suggest that under those conditions there will be very little "need" for these facilities :-) Especially if the real benefactorsa, the car owners are the ones who pay. That mob are worse than any drug addict. I'm not sure where you are but I would guess that, probably, you live in a democracy, in which case you must know that the majority get to dictate to the minority, as has been the case since Athens, in the second half of the 7th century BC. So, democratically, cars, or perhaps more properly internal-combustion powered vehicles, must have first priority to the roads. -- cheers, John B. |
