How exactly will the removal of bike lanes help the flow of traffic??? I am a driver and I find this ridiculous.
When I drive downtown, I much prefer University Avenue over Bay or Yonge due to the separation of bikes in their own lane, making driving much smoother. In comparison, Bay and Yonge are complete chaos with bikes weaving in and out of traffic and illegally parked cars. And surprise, they also receive congestion.
Also, the removal of bike lanes will cause people to stop cycling because they don't feel safe, me included. That means they will shift to cars or taxis/rideshares for their trips, which nullifies the removal of bike lanes.
This bill is unbelievable and I can't believe we are wasting taxpayer money on removing infrastructure that makes people feel safer and provides a faster way for people to commute.
