This proposal will not save me time and will increase commuting time and decrease safety for so many. Bike lanes are a way of reducing traffic, as they allow for less cars on the road. Bikes take up much less space on the road then cars, and therefore more bikers that feel safe and will commute by bike will effectively reduce car traffic. Commuting/travelling by bike is better for the environment as it reduces the amount of gas cars on the road. We should be doing all we can to reduce cars on the road and improve other environmentally friendly methods of transportation, such as biking. Any added bureaucracy or red-tape needed to increase the number of bike lanes will impede that goal and reduce the quality of life of the people of Ontario and Toronto.
