Bike lanes are important in…

Bike lanes are important in Ontario and across the world for many reasons:
- they make roadways safe for everyone, including drivers, cyclists, and in many cases pedestrians as well
- they allow citizens of Ontario the freedom to choose how they want to get around
- they make roads less confusing for motorists and cyclists alike by providing both groups with their own space
- they provide easier access to transit stations and key points of interest
In addition:
- ripping out existing bike lanes is a waste of my tax dollars, as well as everyone else’s
- the provincial government should stick to managing their own provincial matters and duties, instead of meddling in municipal matters. This is only going to add barriers and unnecessary bureaucracy and slow down municipal governments from trying to reduce traffic by increasing transportation infrastructure
- let’s keep roadways safe for everyone of all ages, backgrounds, and political stances
