This bill is extremely harmful to the work we have done to increase bike infrastructure across many cities in the province. I completely disagree with the plan the remove bike lanes from Bloor, Yonge and University. As someone who does not own or plan to own a car having choice in transportation is important to me and is one of the reasons I have chosen Toronto as my home. I use bike share to get groceries, explore the city and just move around the city in an efficient and cost effective way. When planning a route the availability of bike lanes directly impacts which method I choose to use. Having less bike infrastructure is not an option - It reduces the number of options I have available to me and makes quality of life worse. If this legislation is passed I expect the government to look at the facts of each section of lanes and commission studies to ensure alternatives are available to people.
