Bike lanes in cities are a matter of life and death.
Bike lanes provide a dedicated space for people to ride bikes in safety (including children) — out of the way of vehicular traffic. Without bike lanes, cyclists must take the lane to protect their safety, which will drastically slow car traffic across the city. Bike lanes can often reduce traffic congestion, which is in fact caused by the volume of cars on the road and not by bike lanes.
Bike lanes make streets safer for all residents, not just cyclists.
Bike lanes are good for business, especially on main streets.

As Premier Ford said himself in 2017, "One death is way too many when it comes to bicycle riders. We have to make sure that they’re safe. You’re nervous when there’s no bike lanes. At least I was."
Besides this serious life safety issue, bike lanes have been proven to be good for business.

Bike lanes save lives.

Removing bike lanes will be blood on Doug Ford's hands.
