    I was actually going to jump on their side: that area is still very car centric and you need to be able to handle that while taking steps toward safe cycling and walkability. …… then the video was showing a mostly empty street where many of the houses had driveways, so no. They can suck it up and park in their driveway or around the corner like the rest of us

    Or heck, that street is really wide. We have narrower streets with both a protected bike lane and parking

    The church should have accomodations though, even if it means closing part of the bike lane sundays

        As someone who used to live in places with very limited places to park, that shouldn’t be a deal breaker. Some do have driveways and there are side streets. It’s not the end of the world to have to park around the corner. (Assuming the side streets are less crowded than downtown Boston)

        You don’t have to be religious to support people who are, just like you don’t have to cycle to support people who do. Both are community needs
