One example : Paris 4 years ago, few bike lanes and very few bikes. Detractors of the newly created ones were arguing about the ressource waste. Today it is one continuous line at rush hour and some lanes are completely jammed. I am not an expert, but what a change. The pandemic may have helped but it is a true transformation. Many people who would have never bike in Paris a few months ago now bike daily to commute. It certainly took more than just laying lanes, planning and choosing the right places to create lanes has certainly a lot to do with it. But once the main places were connected by safe lanes, it began and never stopped. Millenia-old super dense city certainly helps too, nonetheless many thought it would be impossible. Would probably be harder in a less crowded place.

Not the most precise, but describes well the feeling. [edit] : typo and spacing
