Comment
The City of Toronto has caused a seriously dangerous traffic situation by removing automobile traffic lanes on Eglinton Avenue West between Avenue Road and Chaplin Crescent.
This reduction of traffic lanes is not warranted on Eglinton Avenue West because of the relatively modest volume of bicycle usage in this particular area of the City. Has the City of Toronto objectively demonstrated the level of bicycle activity now or in the future when the Crosstown is in operation?
Of serious concern is the dangerous situation that will be created by snow shoveling necessary during the winter months of the year. There is absolutely no room for automobile traffic, bicycle lanes and piles of snow - it will be a gridlock disaster.
Please review this decision by the City of Toronto and revert to the traffic lanes that existed previously.
Thank you.
