Reply to comment by jconti1233 in Brett Smiley looks to change / eliminate bicycle lane on South Water Street by Locksmith-Pitiful

Wouldn't reducing accessibility by car/bus disproportionately impact disabled people who can't walk or bike? OP of this thread has implied they no longer want PVD to be a car city. I guess disabled people will have to shelter in place for the rest of their lives

Not an expert in the topic, but valid concern. Imho A nice bike lane is a lot easier to use than the sidewalk for low accessibility people. I agree with your premise though, Public transit for low accessibility residents is the mark of a solid public transit system
