I take the Bloor and University bike lanes daily from my home in the West end of Toronto to my office downtown. I also use them (and many other bike lanes) with my children regularly.
The bike lanes helped me make a decision to stop driving as often and participate in a healthy, environmentally friendly mode of transportation and be one less car on the road to create gridlock. I hope to continue to be able to do that safely and efficiently.
The government has not provided any statistics or data that illustrate how removing bike lanes would positively impact congestion, especially on a street like Bloor where the lanes closest to the sidewalk were almost always clogged with parked cars or construction vehicles.
My life and my children's lives would be far less safe if bike lanes are removed.
