This is proposed as a way to fight gridlock. As if one extra lane has ever solved gridlock. It is a complete lack of foresight to remove bike lanes.

One of the reasons stated is that accidents that involve bikes and cars are a detriment to traffic issues. As if the solution is to remove the lane. Look at other cities that thrive off bike infrastructure. This a complete slap in the face to efficient city infrastructure to propose a removal of bike lanes. For example why not make it safer for bikers as opposed to just removing a lane.

I understand the need to want to alleviate traffic. This is not the way. Toronto simply was not & is not made to handle this level of congestion. Removing the bike lanes will do little if anything to solve this issue.

What is the solution? I’m not sure.

The city already has such sub par biking infrastructure, what a slap in the face this will be.
