      This level of spaghetti is usually a lack of design, don’t attribute to malice that which can be attributed to incompetence.

          If you want to say the overall conditions that led to this were profit motivated (ie high car owning, excessive land used for roads), then sure. But the specific decision not to add a bike lane or sidewalk likely wasn’t directly motivated by automotive lobbying.

            Not automobile lobby, but yes, the businesses in the area. Like others have posted parking costs,

              Idk why people are so naive these days when cynicism usually ends up being correct.
