As a transportation planner for the City of Hamilton, I do not support this bill. There are endless studies and factual data that prove that increasing vehicle lanes do NOT increase traffic flow, but instead, increase congestion over time. Not only that, but adding cycling lanes and removing vehicle lanes lowers congestion by discouraging driving in leu of sustainable transportation such as biking and bussing. Please do not pass this. Cars have ruined North American cities and we have fought for years to increase sustainable transportation usage.
