I think all bike lanes should be removed in Ontario. I appreciate the idea of bike lanes . However the climate and the urban sprawl in the province will forever prevent the benefit of bike lanes from being realized over vehicle traffic.
I would guess that people commuting to work by bicycle represents 1% of road traffic or less. That % likely drops to near zero in late fall thru winter and early spring. It's just nonsensical to permanently close a lane of traffic for a bike lane that is barely being used. Unless we start getting winters that stay above 10 degrees and all move downtown that is not going to change any time soon . Let's be realistic that's never going to happen so let's stop pretending and open those lanes back up.
