I just wish they would say "Look, it's 2015, and we want a cool bike lane like all the other cool cities and we don't really care what the reality is because some day, like a long time from now, these lanes might come in handy".
That was one of the main arguments FOR the cycle tracks - funnel people into preferred, safe routes. Motorists should love this, keeps bikes out of their way on parallel routes.

The increase in ridership is very, very good considering about 15-20% of the workforce it is meant to serve primarily is no longer there!

Transit ridership into downtown was down over 10%. Parking utilization is also way down.
