Please reconsider the provisions in this bill related to bike lanes. Bike lanes reduce congestion, they do not contribute.

Alternatives to driving reduce congestion, they do not contribute. Transit and active transportation options reduce congestion.

Removing existing bike lanes uses public funds that can be better used on healthcare or education.

Adding additional review steps will slow down and paralyze municipalities when it comes to making decisions that benefit their local population.

Every person taking transit or utilizing active transportation is one less car on the road, leading to more room for people who have no choice by to drive.
