installing bicycle lanes that run the OPPOSITE direction to motor

On one-way streets this is often a good thing.
It's always going to depend on where and how they end.
Yes, they need to make it all the way to the end, and have an
appropriate junction there. Here's two I liked to use some years ago :

I did meet a lady on the first one who was insisting that because it was
a bike lane, she should use it even if she was going the other way, and
it wasn't big enough for us to pass. Fortunately it wasn't a traffic
jammed time so I just went in the car lane.
