Mayor Naheed Nenshi said he’s “not fussed” about new polling numbers that show Calgarians remain divided over on-street bike lanes.

The 2015 survey shows just 18 per cent are very satisfied with Calgary’s on-street bike lanes, while 42 per cent responded as somewhat satisfied.

“The fascinating thing about the bike lanes thing is that after all the drama, after all the ink spilled on it, after so much whining about it … we still have a clear majority of people say, ‘spend more,'” Nenshi told reporters.

However, the report actually shows only 20 per cent of respondents want the city to spend more on bike lanes. One-third said keep spending levels the same, while 47 per cent said City Hall should spend less.
-70% of pollers surveyed on landline
-76% own their home, mean age of 44 years.

Exactly the people these bike lanes are for. Awesome poll.
