I SUPPORT TORONTO BICYCLE LANES
I SUPPORT BLOOR WEST BICYCLE LANES | I SUPPORT YONGE STREET BICYCLE LANES
I SUPPORT MULTIPLE MODES OF TRANSPORT IN ONTARIO
PLEASE ENSURE THEY ARE NOT REMOVED
They get me to and from my destination safely and as a business owner, the lanes provide a convenient option when Bloor is gridlocked (which is very regular in the span of one week). TTC is not a valid option as several times per day, it is broken and or not working. Busy professionals CANNOT rely on this.
I would not be able to run my business effectively without them and neither would some of my employees. Many other business owners I know would not be able to function without them. Deliveries, transportation and many other reasons are included.
We're in a crisis here in the GTA where we lack multiple modes of transport. Prioritizing car lanes will not solve the issue short term and it certainly will NOT do so over the long term. The issue is that the only dependable way to get around is by car. Bicycle lanes offer some sort of alternative to that and it would be a very backward and illogical move to revert.
Premier Ford and Government, we are calling on your leadership to ensure that you do not overstep formal jurisdiction to interfere with Toronto Bicycle lanes. Please get the province moving with the transit projects you PROMISED to be delivered.
Premier Ford, your goal should be to provide as many Ontarians as possible with more transportation options, not remove them to please a select few.
Please do the logical thing, Premier Ford and Government. Please protect the Toronto bicycle lanes and ensure that various transport methods are available around the province, other than cars. Please protect the Yonge Street bicycle lanes and ensure they are not removed. Please protect all Toronto bicycle lanes and ensure they are not removed!
Your next election and political credibility will depend on it.
