Do You Want Clean Air, or Cars? You Can't Have Both

Two articles on the same day in the same rightist newspaper. No one could ever accuse them of consistency. One article moans about how pollution is basically killing us, the other whines about traffic jams (mostly caused by cyclists, according to this newspaper). This same paper has fought, tooth and nail, the new mayor's plan to expand bike paths throughout the city, complaining that it will slow down traffic. They never, not once, asked how this might benefit the citizens of the city. 

As it is turning out, the new bikes paths are not causing major traffic delays. I think that most people are in full agreement with the mayor which led to his re-election in May. We are already seeing new bike paths in the city, including a new section that will link the end of Turia Park with the path that goes to the port and the beach. It is almost finished.
