Removing sections of the Bloor Street, Yonge Street, and University Avenue bike lanes in the City of Toronto and return them to a lane of traffic for motor vehicles is wrong. It has been proven over and over again, that adding new lanes to streets doesn't relieve congestion. Bikes need a safe place to ride all over the city. We should be adding more bike lanes so that the new bike lanes can feed the existing ones. Why is on Ontario government not allowing the City of Toronto and other municipalities decide what's best for them. Removing bike lane infrastructure is a huge waste of money. Bike rentals is increasing in Toronto, which is a good thing. The government should be looking forward and not looking backwards. We should be spending money on public transit (subway, LRT, bus, bike lanes, sidewalks, etc) and not be wasting money prioritizing cars. Lets get upgrade public transit so that we can become a cleaner and more friendly city.
