There is enough evidence to suggest that the basis for this proposed legislation - that the removal of bike lanes will speed up traffic - is false. In fact, the existence of bike lanes not only make traffic faster but also, much safer for cyclists and pedestrians.
I know one OPP employee whose sole job it was to drive Ministers around who “clocked in” from home, for 20 minutes, during Covid and received a full salary. So I realize the government prioritized my tax dollars to fund drivers. The same government is willing to spend more of my tax dollars to remove new infrastructure installed to make me safer, and potentially add more drivers to an already congested road. I own two cars - maybe I’ll just start being another driver ahead of you on your way into the office.
