This bill will heavily harm…

This bill will heavily harm cyclists in Ontario by removing bike lanes. Almost every bike lane is created by removing a lane of traffic so I'm not sure how Ontario is supposed to keep any bike lane after this.

Removing bike lanes on Bloor St., Yonge St., and University Ave. will be detrimental to cyclist safety. Bloor St bike lanes are one of the few bike lanes that stretch far enough between east and west compared to College Street for example that abruptly stops.

University Ave as well is the safest road to cycle north and south right now in downtown Toronto. If the bike lanes are removed then cyclists will have to contest with traffic on Bathurst and Spadina.

Note that without bike lanes, cyclists are still going to bike in Ontario but now in more dangerous conditions. Doug Fords proposed bill will increase cyclist deaths and blood will be on his hands for driving cyclists into the path of cars. This bill cannot and should not exist.
