Comment
I am writing to express my opposition to Bill 39, which limits the decision-making authority of municipalities regarding street safety and infrastructure. This bill disrupts the autonomy of local governments and undermines their ability to make informed decisions that best serve their communities. Municipalities understand their unique transportation needs and are better positioned to create solutions that address gridlock and improve the quality of life for residents.
Bike lanes and active transportation infrastructure are not only essential for safe, sustainable commuting but also help ease traffic congestion by offering alternatives to car travel. Limiting municipal powers to implement these initiatives will have negative consequences on our urban mobility and environmental goals.
Please reconsider Bill 39 and support policies that respect municipal autonomy and promote sustainable transportation.
