Main Street Bike Lane closing for season Wednesday

The Main Street bike lane will be removed on October 26, 2011 for the winter months, with plans to reinstate the bike lane in the spring for the 2012 construction season. Crews will be on Main Street removing the bike lane pylons, road markings and traffic lights. The concrete jersey barriers at the intersection of Portland and Main Streets will remain over the winter. There is no left turn from Main Street to Portland Street.

What's the thinking here? I do NOT get this decision, why tease the public like that, people need to GET USED TO THE FACT THAT BIKES ARE GOING TO BE HERE, ALWAYS. The average SJ driver needs that fact to be weld-bonded into their unconscious by rote repetition, letting them drive in that lane in the winter just reinforces the idea that bikes are just for kids and summer fun , not for serious travel.
