We are citizens on this province and we live in Toronto.
I am writing on behalf of my family.
We do not have a car for many reasons, the greatest being that we don’t need one. we get around by bike and do transit and a car share occasionally.
Bike lanes are critical to our transportation. without them, we will just be 2 more cars on the road, gumming up traffic, taking up parking spots, getting no exercise or fresh air.
if driving or on transit, we won’t stop at any of the businesses along Bloor (which i do now every day during my commute).
if you ask any business owner on that strip, they will tell you that removing the bike lane will ruin their business.
the government is not funding transit properly, how are people supposed to get around? thousands of new people are moving in on Bloor at Bathurst, Dovercourt and Dufferin and Dundas.
this bill is very short-sighted.
bike lanes save lives. cyclists are vulnerable road users. I often have my child with me by bike. please keep the bike lanes.
i do not agreed with the construction of the 413. this is not following proper environmental assessments or consultation with indigenous peoples. the studies have shown that this highway will not save more than a few minutes for drivers while destroying farmland and sensitive areas. please do not proceed with this nonsense.
thanks
