Starting with a blinkered goal of ‘getting drivers where they need to go, faster’ is fundamentally flawed and ignores all of the non driver taxpayers of Ontario. What kind of a goal is that?
How about moving people safely, respectfully and in an environmentally sensitive manner—all people: pedestrians, transit users, cyclists AND drivers.
If you continue to dump more and more cars into the city, where are they going to go and what will be the end game. You can’t fight gridlock with more cars. 🤷‍♀️
The threat of removing existing bike lanes is madness. Please please please stop spending my tax money on things that make my live less and less pleasant. Please spend some money on health care, education and improving public transit. (And getting out of the Ontario Place contract.)
I am a driver, a walker, a transit user, and a cyclist. The bike lanes (speaking here of Bloor Street bike lanes) allow me to ride my bike in Toronto.
