+
+Salt Lake City removed 30% of parking on Broadway and that stretch saw retail sales outperform the rest of the city by
+~25%. The road diet converted angled parking to parallel parking to create the space for 9 blocks of protected bike
+lanes.
+
+When all was said and done, the business owners loved it and attribute their business growth to the street redesign.

+
+> "Both customers and employees love the bike lanes," Jeff Telicson, manager of the Copper Onion restaurant, told the
+> city. "We need more bike parking!"
