1. This legislation is huge Provincial over-reach on decisions that should be made by municipalities. If this passes, what next?
2. Removing bike lanes is dangerous for cyclists and also for drivers who are more distracted than ever and share the road badly.
3. Research has repeatedly shown that widening roads makes congestion worse: add a lane= add more cars.
4. Its not just about bike safety but about the environment. we need to move ALL people towards more sustainable transportation whether it be bus/train/subway/bikes/walking. THAT is the long term goal and solution. I appreciate not everyone CAN do that but the majority of workers could with better infrastructure.
5. Removing bike lanes is a waste of taxpayers money, and businesses will also suffer from reduced traffic
