As an aside where I live- the city took a more common sense approach as when the roads were resurfaced they added either one or two bike lanes while preserving the roadway, in essence converting the roadway shoulders into designated bike travel lanes and round abouts.

This was funded by "Complete Streets"

In areas where this was not feasible the federal money was used to convert abandoned rail lines into paved bike trails too. ("Rails To Trails")

Usually, where actions like this are taken without the consent of the taxpayers affected there is a funding pot that the city wants,-and to get it they have to perform but it is widely unpopular and must be forced upon those affected.
