Yep, absolutely.
But they started out with a vision based, in part on things like a potential oil crisis. We also didn't demand as much instant gratification and it was understood that constant resources would need to be dedicated to cycle lanes.
Over here it will now take longer for them to become ingrained into our daily, social and transport thinking. There is a very high risk that segregation won't deliver the hoped for increase in cycling modal share at the sort of pace that justifies their continued support.
