There is no reason to…

There is no reason to increase red tape or bureaucracy than it already has. I use bike lanes everyday and have recently signed up for the BikeTO programs due to increase in bike lanes. They make me feel safer and helps ensure that I get to my destinations alive, especially the ones with concrete infrastructure instead of painted bike paths. My friends are increasingly considering riding bikes as it is faster, safe and also able to live a healthier lifestyle, partly due to the completion of the bloor and university bike lanes. They are essential infrastructure for the city!
I also drive from time to time in the city and more cyclists on the road means less cars in lane which reduces congestion. I feel safer when I am driving on university which has its own protected bike lanes instead of a painted bike path. When I would like to go somewhere, it is only logical to choose the fastest and safest way to get to the destination. By maintaining and expanding the current bike infrastructure on Bloor, University and Yonge, we provide choices for the people instead of limiting everyone to only cars.
