I would like to express my strong support for the implementation of more bike lanes in Toronto and not removing any bike lanes. The addition of dedicated bike lanes offers numerous benefits for our city, including:

Improved Safety: Bike lanes significantly reduce the risk of accidents between cyclists and vehicles, creating a safer environment for all road users.

Reduction of Traffic Congestion: By encouraging more cyclists to use the roads, bike lanes can help alleviate traffic congestion, improving commutes for everyone.

Environmental Benefits: More cyclists mean reduced greenhouse gas emissions, contributing to cleaner air and a healthier environment.

Public Health Improvements: Cycling is an excellent form of exercise, which can enhance public health and reduce healthcare costs for the city.

Economic Boost: Increased cycling can lead to greater business for local shops, as cyclists are more likely to stop at nearby establishments compared to drivers.

Incorporating more bike lanes aligns with Toronto’s goals of sustainability, health, and effective urban planning. I urge decision-makers to prioritize this initiative for the benefit of our city and its residents.

Thank you for considering this important matter.
