Oh no, I get it, I'm actually all about nature, plants, trees, birds, bees, squirrels, racoons, etc. I get that.
But hell, when a city is already established with roads where you can easily turn towards either side to get to the place you're looking to go, then they put in a divider that blocks said easy access, then people stop going to those places when they get off work, and those businesses wither away and end up shutting down, which kills the local economy and associated job opportunities.
Believe me, I know, I'm from an area where two different cities did exactly that, put divider plants in the middle of the highway, and half the businesses no longer exist. And it still did jack shit to help bicyclists.
