Do not remove or gatekeep bike lanes. The provincial government should not be adding red tape and bureaucracy to slow down municipal decisions on transportation options. Bike lanes are essential transportation infrastructure like car lanes, subways, and sidewalks. We need to guarantee their safety as well as provide options for all road users. When I drive, I prefer bicyclists to be in their own dedicated bike lane anyway. Bike lanes also support transit by making it easier to get to stations, ensuring less cars on the roads.
