Removing bike lanes won't…

Removing bike lanes won't remove the gridlock. This will exasperate the problem not solve it.

Building up the protection designs for those bike lanes to make them safer so more people will feel comfortable using them will reduce the traffic problem.

Waterloo Region has some great safe bike lane designs that other cities, such as Toronto, should embrace. There are many countries that have used alternative vehicle usage to solve their gridlock issues. Additional bike lanes are a solution that also stops cars and trucks from speeding in these areas of shared roads.

Getting people out of their cars and into public transit or on their bikes will reduce the gridlock.

Also we don't need nor want the 413 highway. This will not save time. The damage that it will cause to this precious environment will be irreversible. Roads, non-agricultural businesses, and housing should not be built on these lands. The Province should not be enriching pockets of the builders to the detriment of our Ontario lands.
