Hello Ontario Government,

I find the bike lanes in my neighbourhood an essential and safe service. With the bike lanes, I can safely travel down an important street and then reach destinations. I also encourage my girlfriend to bike with me but she doesn't feel comfortable to bike on any streets without bike lanes, so it is integral to our ability to get around that more bike lanes are built.

I am not wealthy enough to own a car and therefore these bike lanes provide a lot of useful connections for me that are cheaper and faster than transit because of the odd directions and layout of the transit network.

Also, please stop wasting my taxpayer money on another layer of bureaucracy and red tape to complete projecting in our city. Another thing is bike lanes are a lot cheaper to maintain and provide than car lanes, so please stop spending our city's money because they really cannot afford it right now.

Thank you for reading my comment!
