I am concerned that the proposed legislation will only add red tape to making the city move better.

I operate a number of restaurants in Toronto and the majority of my customers arrive without a private motor vehicle. The numbers that arrive by bicycle have grown as new cycle lanes have been added in the area (Richmond/Adelaide, Yonge and Bloor in particular).

Reducing motor vehicle lanes has paradoxically improved gridlock by giving the single lane of traffic full clarity on where to go: the erstwhile curb lane was rarely passable to begin with, but then suddenly it became safe for cyclists and other micro-mobility users.
