I support this Bill. Bike lanes have been installed on too many downtown streets in Ottawa, adding to the traffic congestion and reducing short term parking. I believe these lanes increase costs to the City for snow removal too - which leads to increased costs to taxpayers. The addition of bike lanes benefits a very small number of cyclists while negatively affecting a large number of car drivers. I don’t patronize small businesses in the downtown area anymore as it is too hard to find parking and the traffic is so bad. Bike lanes have a negative effect on small businesses, in my opinion.
