It is sad to watch the government deliberately misuse the word gridlock to remove bike lanes. Gridlock starts when a car enters an intersection, and can not clear it before the light changes colour. This prevents cars from moving when they have a green light. Worse, if this happens at multiple intersections, it can take a long time to resolve. It happens because of the greed and short sightedness of drivers.

If the government is blaming gridlock on bike, they are being misleading and deceptive.

If the Ford government wanted to improve travel times on major streets, they should encourage municipalities to remove parking, and crack down on illegal parking/stopping by couriers and delivery people.

Highway 413 will not be a long term solution to traffic. It will be a very costly way to build more suburbs, where people will be more reliant on cars. The environmental damage will be tremendous. We would be better off building transit, and building communities around transit.
