Spending money to get rid of…

Spending money to get rid of bike lanes that were just constructed is an incredibly wasteful use of taxpayer money, will cause construction blockages for weeks making traffic much worse, and is a political stunt by Ford to win suburban voters who will never drive on Bloor, University, or Yonge.

This is a distraction from his political corruption involving Ontario Place, the Greenbelt, and Highway 413.

The data shows bike lanes do not increase commute times, and adding lanes to these downtown arterial roads will just induce more demand and traffic will quickly become the same or worse than it already is.

Businesses along these roads have seen increased transactions. Removing the bike lanes will cause more biking and pedestrian deaths and keep Toronto a second class city.

If you want to increase road efficiency get rid of free and subsidized parking on major roads such as Dundas, where on parked car reduces the road from tow lanes to one for all road users.

Bike lanes do not cause traffic. The Gardiner is the greatest example of induced demand, commuters are struck on the Gardiner all day and there is not on bike lane to be seen.

If these bike lanes are removed so Prabmeet Sarkaria can feel better driving from Brampton, through Toronto and all the residents and users of the bike lanes, people will die and get injured on our roads, and Ford and MP Sarakaria will be responsible.
