Public transport would still alleviate the issue by moving a portion of the drivers off the roads. Which, in turn, will make bike lanes safer.
Yes. I’m not sure how it’s the infrastructure’s fault that we don’t have better transit though. Better transit would mean busses here as we have decent bike support and regional rail. We do have busses, too, but for them to be better they need to go more places that the cars are going.
And actually the biggest reason we have so many cars is they keep building more and more housing further and further out from our town, which then needs to pass through our town to get anywhere.
There’s multiple layers to this, but if all you wanted to say was “your infrastructure is shit” then, well, you’ve said it.
Because improving infrastructure makes these layers easier to deal with. More bike and bus lanes, more car traffic restrictions, extending public transport routes to suburbs, even building tram lines potentially. All of this and more will make your town better and all of it is possible if you pressure your elected representatives enough.
The reason you have so many cars is because people in charge prioritize the comfort of cars.
