Comment
This bill is nonsensical, and my arguments against it are as follows:
1. The provincial government shouldn't be adding red tape and bureaucracy to slow down local governments trying to increase transportation options.
2. I use bike lanes every day and consider them essential transportation infrastructure.
3. The provincial government should be concerned with guaranteeing the safety of ALL road users, particularly those most vulnerable, like cyclists and pedestrians.
4. When I drive, I would much rather cyclists be out of the way in their own bike lane - this bill will put them in the road.
5. Finally, bike lanes are a low-cost investment that supports pre-existing transport infrastructure by making it easier to get to train stations and bus stops.
The people of Ontario need more transportation options as opposed to more red tape and bureaucracy.
