I strongly oppose the proposal to remove bike lanes on Bloor Street, Yonge Street, and University Avenue. These bike lanes are essential for my daily commute, allowing me and many others to safely and efficiently reach public transit hubs. Removing them would only increase car dependency, worsening gridlock and emissions.

This plan would not only impact residents but also place a financial burden on the City of Toronto, which would need to reallocate funds to dismantle already-effective infrastructure. Additionally, the loss of these lanes would make roads more dangerous for cyclists, potentially leading to more accidents and higher healthcare costs.

The bike lanes represent a commitment to a more sustainable, accessible Toronto. Removing them is a costly step backward. I urge the government to reconsider this decision for the well-being and safety of all city residents.
