Driving in Toronto is frustrating and slow and most residents would understand the intent to improve traffic conditions. However the removal of bike lanes and the suspension of installing new bike lanes is not a solution.
Bike lanes remove traffic from congested roads - cycling in the downtown area of Toronto is often a faster, cheaper and healthier transit choice.
Cycle lanes provide a safer path for cyclist to travel and typically fee up a traffic lane for car traffic. Removing cycle lanes will not improve traffic flow, it will create unsafe road conditions for a large number of road users including children.
Street cars, buses, car parking, left turns (where no turning lane exists) slow traffic as well, but this proposal will not address
