Lego Bike Lanes

So a Dutch politician wants Lego to make decently-sized bike lanes to go with the new city road plates and put his proposal up on Lego Ideas, and it's now in the running to be made:

The people wanted Lego bike lanes, and Lego is finally listening

And here's the Lego Ideas page:

We need military lanes!
A lane wide enough for a tank, no cars allowed. I don't want my poor tanks being damaged by bicycles and electric cars.

Well, with the new road plates, you could build yourself a parade ground if you wanted.

You just gotta buy enough road plates.

100 of them will cover an area 1.28m by 1.28m! :mrgreen:

Hmm, we are going to need an increase in the military budget for that.

Update: Bike Lanes has gotten over 5000 supporters and is halfway to the final milestone of 10,000 supporters needed to be considered for an official set release.

Dutch politicians should be doing their job instead. :wtc: I'm not even going into how awful bike lanes are in general.
