Rather than paint over the pavement (which wears out and can be slippery), they should use pavement that has a pigment mixed in. This coloured pavement should be used on all bike infrastructure so it's clear where cars aren't allowed. Use a subtle pigment rather than ugly, garish bright colours.

In other words, do what the Netherlands does. It works really well. In North America, when cycling in an unfamiliar place, it can be hard to tell where I should be riding, whereas in the Netherlands it is always clear.
