There are a lot of different conversations to have around this, but as a starting point I would assert that relying on a shared lane (with sharrows or super sharrows or no sharrows at all) to accommodate cyclists on a 4-lane boulevard and posted speed of 30 mph is inappropriate.
*"Because of the competing demands of all these users and constituencies, says Jason Patton, Oakland’s bicycle and pedestrian program manager, it proved impossible to create a dedicated bike lane on this stretch of 40th Street, despite three different attempts to do so."* Translation: We (city staff, political leaders, residents) couldn't bring ourselves to remove parking or MV throughput in order to safely and comfortably accommodate people riding on bikes.
