I'm in support of the removal of bike lanes in Ottawa. We don't nearly have cycling ridership that many would lead you to believe. I drive a taxi in the city and at peak hours I count merely dozens of cyclists on each street downtown. I have become very observant of this over the past year and make it a note to keep track of cyclist volume. We have extremely minimal cyclists in this city.

In the winter not a single bike is in site. All these lanes do is create significantly more traffic and make driving unsafe with narrow lanes.

Please start by removing the lanes on Rideau, Wellington and O'Connor.
