Say that street A feeds into street B. Street A flows freely and is necessary for a different bus route. Street B is a bottleneck, both cars and buses pass through slowly.
If you remove a car lane from street B, the cars might back up into street A and impede both cars and buses that previously flowed freely through street A.
It’s a contrived example, but honestly I can think of a few places like this near me.
I realize now I shouldn’t have broached this topic in fuckcars 😂
How would it reduce throughput for busses?

I mean, all discussion is welcome. City planning is a complex topic.
