Despite the fact that this place is all concrete or desert and not designed for bikes, they are everywhere here (the black blob in the street is an unlighted cyclist). Cycling is an even more necessary form of transportation for people in a car-dominated culture. When parking is expensive or challenging, when cars and gas are too expensive for the service industry and working class...
This is the land of candy-coated porta-potties.
As in Pittsburgh, the folks who hang streetsigns are either constrained to do things under a certain protocol or are just plain short-sighted in doing their jobs.
Just past all the crap is a gorgeous world of nature waiting. It's getting wiped out daily.
They don't want you to look past the pretty facades or over the jersey barriers. It doesn't take much investigation to realize it's an open sewer and eddy current that catches some of the trash and worst sides of humanity.
