The removal of bike lanes is an overreach by this province that will worsen traffic conditions. It strips away the right for cyclists to use alternative transportation, disregarding those who prefer not to drive. This approach feels stuck in a 1950s mindset.
Eliminating bike lanes will likely lead to more injuries for cyclists, as drivers will be forced to maneuver around them, increasing the risks. Additionally, cycling benefits the environment and promotes better health.
Regarding Highway 413, it threatens greenbelt and farmland and is unnecessary given the existing 407. Claims that it will save drivers over 30 minutes are misleading, and the actual costs will far exceed estimates. This project will only encourage urban sprawl and car dependency.
Instead, we should prioritize better public transit and improved healthcare. It's time to stop catering to developers.
