This is one of the worst things I have ever seen from the Provincial government and will change the way I vote.
1) Ripping out infrastructure will create more short term gridlock than it would be worth.
2) Cost of removing newly built infrastructure would be insane - Why are we removing something we just built. Would we remove the Eglinton cross town because it creates "traffic" on Eglinton?
3) Induced demand means the better the bike infrastructure the more people that would bike. I have literally seen bike traffic jams on Bloor because the lanes are soo popular and it's no wonder that this is the oldest part of the infrastructure.
4) I am a car commuter but my wife and children bike often across Bloor and down to university to go to the hospitals there. These are vital trips that relieve traffic on the roads and the TTC.
