The push to remove already…

The push to remove already constructed bike lanes to somehow resolve traffic congestion has no basis in reality for Toronto citizens. To the already cynical citizens of this city it appears to be another attempt to support drivers from outside the 416 in favour of those refusing to use transit or pay the true price for the privilege of driving in the city. Because the Province continues to fail to complete transit projects underway cycling infrastructure is even more necessary. Young adults in Toronto take transit or bike or ride share. They cannot afford car ownership. If transit worked better they and most Torontonians would favour it. We see the environmental benefit. Torontonians want cycling lanes. We need cycling lanes to reduce car usage, keep their living costs down and reduce climate impact. As a taxpayer and driver I strongly prefer bikes to be in a designated lane. It keeps cyclists and drivers apart and both safer. Stop this idiotic waste of taxpayer dollars, wasteful demolition and regressive policy of removing cycling infrastructure. Build more, don’t destroy the progress we’ve made!
