I am completely against ripping up bike lanes. It will not reduce traffic, and will just cause induced demand - meaning that gridlock may ease at first, but as it does so will the number of people driving increase, and we’ll be in the exact same boat. Toronto has come so far in terms of bike infrastructure and usage has grown significantly every year. I pay an insane amount for rent in this city, and for the priorities of suburbanites that don’t even live here be put over the wishes of locals is heartbreaking. The amount of food delivery drivers that rely on bike lanes cannot be understated, and their use of the bike lanes is a win for all. If bike lanes do get ripped out, the death of the cyclists that will come from collisions are on the hands of Doug Ford and Prabmeet Sarkaria.
