1) in recognition of the impact of car exhaust to climate change, the province needs to focus efforts on other forms of transportation than the single passenger vehicle. This includes a more robust public transit system and promoting active transportation.
2) Expansion of highways and centring roadways on motor vehicles will only create induced demand, so gridlock will go up not down as people will be incentivized to use single passenger motor vehicles.
3) Municipal governments are in a much better position to evaluate the needs for and benefits from bike lanes.
4) The province overruling the decisions of municipal governments is anti democratic.
