Removing the Bloor and…

Removing the Bloor and University Bike Lanes will greatly inconvenience my life in Toronto. I am 25 years old and recently moved to the city from Richmond Hill. The city is expensive to live in, which makes biking to work a very great way to save money and stay in shape. I use the Bloor and University bike lanes on a daily basis in order to get to work at Osgoode Hall. If the bike lanes were to be removed, it would make my commute to work very dangerous. When biking on streets that don’t have bike lanes (such as Dufferin) I have been exposed to very dangerous situations such as being hit by a car this summer. When I bike on the dedicated bike lanes on Bloor i am able to go from my neighbourhood near Dundas West station all the way to my work in a safe manner. I beg parliament to please reconsider removing the bike lanes as they have made my life as a cyclist so much safer.
