Yes. Add dedicated bike lanes every 3 or blocks and make it illegal to ride your bikes on any streets through the core outside of those dedicated lanes. Lots of people walk a few blocks from where they park or from the C-Train to their work, so it shouldn't be a big deal for cyclists to walk a couple of blocks from a bike parkade to their final destination.

However, I don't really understand what's going on in the second photo. It looks like cyclists have their own lane before and after the intersection. What purpose does the big green area at the front of the lane serve?
