Comment
I am writing to express my concerns about this proposal to allow the provincial government to interfere in municipal decisions regarding bike anes. Toronto residents have had ample opportunities over several years to participate in forums, debates and decision-making prior to the establishment of these bike lanes, and there is no credible evidence to back up Premier Ford's claims that they are a cause of gridlock. Bike lanes keep cars off the roads, and promote positive health and environmental outcomes.
I am a daily pedestrian on a street with bike lanes, and I am also a driver. I appreciate the enhanced safety bike lanes offer to everyone involved.
I urge the Premier to spend his time on much more important matters that fall more clearly under provincial responsibilities and priorites.
