I am incredibly disheartened and disappointed with this Bill. The removal of currently installed bike lanes will NOT improve what is at the heart of gridlock and will only serve to make the roads more dangerous for cyclists who are, in fact, helping to reduce air pollution AND traffic. Bike lanes have greater passenger capacity than car lanes; bike lanes need to be in place and functional (i.e. ideally separated; being clear and not having items, snow, or cars blocking them) for a greater number of riders to use them. Overwhelming evidence has shown that bike lanes decongest and decarbonize. If the Ford government actually wants to be responsive to evidence, it needs to stop making policy and law based on vested interests, misinformation, and emotive reasoning aimed at a conservative base.
