This proposal is absurd…

This proposal is absurd. Removing bike lanes simply forces cyclists onto the road or sidewalk, resulting in more congestion for cars and far less safety for cyclists.

You would think that a city with such a serious gridlock problem would be doing more to encourage people to use their cars less often, yet the opposite is occurring.

The proposed policy to remove bike lanes and to halt their construction where a traffic lane needs to be removed will have the opposite effect that is intended. Mr Ford should consult actual urban planners instead of making uninformed decisions based entirely on populism.
