I do not agree with bill 212
Municipalities should have the decision of areas, and be able to develop plans to suit their community’s needs.
Bike lanes make travel safer for bike traffic.
With safe bike lanes, less cars are on the road, resulting in less congestion.
With narrower roads and safe bike lanes, traffic tends to slow down but still be less congested and fewer accidents.
A significant portion of the population cannot afford the high price of car ownership and turning to the much more affordable bike for transportation needs. Others are take up safe biking for health reasons. I will sum up by stating reduction of greenhouse gas emissions improves air quality.
I am submitting this in hope of reconsideration of this bill.
