Bill 60's clauses about bike…

Bill 60's clauses about bike lanes are extremely confusing to me, especially when your own transportation experts agree: bike lanes don’t cause congestion. Removing bike lanes, and obstructing the city of Toronto's ability to install new ones by removing a lane of vehicle traffic, gets in the way of our ability to make roads safer for all users, enhance transit priority and school zone safety, and hit essential climate, affordability and health goals by moving away from car-dependent designs that have been proven time and again in cities around the world to be harmful. Please. As someone who walks, bikes, drives, and takes public transit in this city, and who intends to live here with my family for my entire life, do not make me see my city go backwards in the name of a culture war. Life is too short for that. As a voter with no particular party alignment, I urge you to listen to your opposition. Do not ram through omnibus bills because you can. The more you do this, the more you will lose the support of people like me, and the more difficult it will be for your biggest supporters to focus on all the good you have done for Ontario. Please amend or remove Bill 60's provisions about bike lanes. If your goal is to improve traffic, do it in the only proven way: create viable alternatives to driving, to take unnecessary cars off the road. Fund buses, subways, and light rail. Advocate for signal priority for streetcars to get people moving again. Fund bike lanes. Fund bike share programs. It's the reasonable thing to do, and its effects will be immediate and obvious, and probably get you reelected.
