Municipalities need to be able to make decisions for themselves. With the GTA exploding in population, ripping out or blocking the construction of bike lanes will only remove options for commuters, forcing more into cars and worsening gridlock.
We as taxpayers spend valuable money on the necessary surveys for these projects. The province's new bill is an overreach of power -- allow the cities to shape themselves as they see fit.
There are many projects that are in the works set to change communities for the better. Speaking from car-centric Hamilton, the bike lanes and bikeshare have done wonders for active transportation and providing people with another way to get around.
