I do not support the idea of removing existing bike infrastructure or adding additional regulation around the creation of new bike lanes. The provincial government increasing the amount of bureaucracy and red tape involved in the city planning process will not solve any of our transportation problems. As a driver in the city of Toronto, I much prefer to drive on routes with separated cycling traffic. Cyclists riding in mixed traffic has a significant impact on traffic flow, and makes travel more dangerous for both drivers and cyclists as drivers try to cut around them. Removing bike lanes will force cyclists into mixed traffic, resulting in worse outcomes for both cyclists and drivers. Ripping out brand new infrastructure is also a huge waste of my tax money, that could be better spent on actual solutions to the congestion problem.
