“The number one thing [tech companies] want is bike lanes. Ten years ago we never would have thought that walkability or bike lanes would be economic development tools”
“It is much more cost-feasible for me to [enhance the core city] with protected bike lanes, than it is for me to go way out somewhere, put in sewers, street lights, and all this stuff. [Cycling] bodes well for our citizens and their health … but it also bodes well for the finances of the city.”
