This is an absurd policy and an egregious waste of my tax dollars to result only in negative outcomes including increased traffic (those on bikes using taxis or cars when no longer safe to bike) and injury and death to cyclists.

Some key points I'd like to offer:

- My family and I use these bike lanes to get around the city. If we were not on bikes, we would likely be contributing to traffic congestion by using a car.
- In most cases, removing these lanes would not actually create an additional lane for traffic.
- Please use updated, Toronto-focused statistics when building a case for your proposals.
- Also, this should be a municipal issue not a provincial one
- Finally, stop using an issue of citizen safety as a way to play to your conservative base -- its transparent and corrupt
