sure, but it's also pretty easy to implement / low hanging fruit. In the beginning, bike paths can be just painted on the ground / plastic barriers in riskier places. It can be improved upon later as the roads are going through more thorough maintenance / renovations. Once some reasonably safe infrastructure is in place, the bike traffic often picks up pretty quickly on its own.
