Bike lanes are a part of fucking road building. So is transit infrastructure.

Bike lanes and transit is part of street building. The netherlands respect road hierarchy much more than north American standards do. America is also severely lacking rail infrastructure like intercity trains and cross country trains. Are you about to say that train building is part of road building too

America cannot exclussively build roads to get out of their congestion nightmare, especially given the current standard for american roads which is basically every lane is built like a highway with the only difference being the speed limit number on the sign.
