Worldwide, it is well known that bikes lanes do not increase congestion. Only adding vehicle lanes increases congestion.
Bike lanes improve business, improve safety and adjust the manner in which people move around an urban area. The livability our our urban neighbourhoods should not come at the expense of the suburban driver. We live here too. We have spent the last 50+ years catering to the car, it is time to change that and focus on sustainable transportation such as bikes, scooters, walking and public transit. I would suggest one just look at the 401 as an example of poor urban design. We should be forward thinking, not harkening back to the 1950s.
Most car drivers do not tolerate pedestrians, bikes, other drivers and generally anything that prevents them from getting to their destination as fast as they can with free parking right outside.
This draft legislation is garbage and should not proceed.
