Removing the bike lanes on Bloor & University is a huge mistake. These are my primary mode of travel to commute downtown to my office on Bay Street. Every morning these lanes are filled with other commuters. If we all took a car to get to work, the sheer volume of cars on the road would increase dramatically. Toronto needs more bike lanes, as they take up less space and move more people faster. You alleviate traffic by using bike lanes, not cause it. On street parking causes traffic, people not using transit or active transportation causes gridlock. Dont punish the people who cant afford a car, they are not the issue. Its those who use a car for a single person trip that could easily be completed if proper active transportation infrastructure is in place.
