As a car driver and a cyclist, I am deeply saddened by the proposed removal of these bike lanes. Adding more lanes for cars, means more cars on the road, leading to more congested roads. There might be a lag of 1-2 years but then car traffic will be worse than it was before the removal of the bike lanes. Adding lanes for cars is extremely short-sighted.

12 cyclists can fit in the space occupied by one car. Bikes are less destructive to road surfaces, quieter, and cleaner. The only way to keep Toronto moving efficiently is by investing in cycling.
