Kindly leave Toronto bike lanes alone. They are used by a variety of people who depend on them for safety reasons. Did you know that wheelchair users often use them as well?

Here are some links to information and studies that will provide insight on these crucial types of commuting Infrastructure.

I would encourage you to go after condo companies who block entire road lanes during construction instead. Those actions impact traffic far more than taking bikes out of vehicle lanes.

Invest in our education and healthcare services and stop punishing cyclists, drivers, and pedestrians.

Doug, you're going to hate traffic more when cyclists are in the same lane as you. Guaranteed. We will not back down on this. Removing bike lanes will kill people.
