Get rid of the bike lanes!…

Get rid of the bike lanes! No one uses them in Etobicoke. We Etobicoke residents don't want bike lanes in Etobicoke or Bloor West. Bikes already have Dupont just 3 blocks north and Toronto's own study says that the increased riders on Bloor are basically just riders from Dupont/Harbord.

If cyclists want to connect into Etobicoke, have them connect from Annette, to Baby Point, Humbercrest and then cross at Old Mill, connecting to Kingsway. Kingsway/Bloor used to have a thorough road from Old Mill to Kingsway, bring that back for cyclists only.

Most of us cyclists in Etobicoke basically just ride to Humber River near Old Mill and ride down to the Martin Goodman Trail. It's a dedicated bike lane and much safer. So put the bike lane on Kingsway and connect to Old Mill.

There is no need for a bike lane on Bloor.

Also, fix Kipling/Bloor. This intersection never had any traffic, NONE! Now that Toronto got rid of the bridge and made Kipling/Bloor and Kipling/Dundas only 100m apart this is a disaster. The lights aren't timed, so traffic gets stuck in the middle. The left turn Lane's going northbound are only single lane and tiny, so they always back up and block the road, and what's with that random 3rd lane between Bloor/Dundas?

Whoever designed this should be fired. There used to be absolutely no traffic here and now it often takes me 10-20 minutes going northbound to cross when the backlog reaches Norseman Ave.
