I'm not convinced that wishing for tramways on every street is a smart move on behalf of all bikers, scooter riders, and others.

Source: my bike commute included streets with tramways.

Tramways on every other street! Gotta balance bikes and public transit.

A street can easily handle bikes and public transit if it is well planned. But I also lean towards busses and subways, tramways only where it can be isolated from other traffic.

Also, on busy streets bycicles and scooters should have their own lane. Streets too small for that shouldn't be busy...
