The proposal is nonsensical. This is an extreme overreach by the province. Separated and protected bike lanes are a safe, environmentally friendly, and practical solution to gridlock in the city. Surely, as a driver, bicycles are annoying, and being vigilant on the road is bothersome. What is LESS annoying is when I know that the cyclists have their own lanes.
What would be less annoying, of course, would be for this city to have a public transit infrastructure that isn't embarrassing, and that allows for multiple modes of transportation. But alas, that isn't Toronto. Toronto nearly forces people into a terrible choice: drive everywhere, or take bicycles to get out of the hell that is our traffic....only to be for some reason to be made into scapegoats, and to wonder whether each ride could prove lethal.
SHAME on the province for this.
