pros and cons of creating cycle lanes throughout the city

cycling is environmentally-friendly. it is also a great physical activity that helps us to stay fit. so why is cycling popular in only a few countries? one of the reasons is the lack of cycle lanes throughout the city. most modern cities are designed for cars and have no separate cycle lanes. so why don't they make more cycle lanes? let us consider pros and cons starting with the pros.

first of all,   cycle lanes reduce the number of accidents. secondly, they clear the streets of cyclists and that is convenient for motorists. thirdly, cycle lanes encourage more people to ride bikes.

but there are also cons. separate cycle lanes are expensive to construct. they should not be just lanes simply painted on the streets or pavements. another con is that cycle lanes are usually narrow, having space for one cyclist to go, but there can be a lot of cyclists travelling at different speed and sometimes this can lead to conflicts and accidents.

as we see, there are both advantages and disadvantages of creating cycle lanes throughout the city, and we should consider each of them carefully before we say "yes' or "no" to cycle lanes in the city.
