I have lived in Toronto for over 15 years. I was initially nervous about cycling without being protected on the road. As the city has rolled out more bike lanes, I have started to bike more and more. I feel healthier and happier. I have saved thousands of dollars and prevented GHGs that would have been emitted if I had taken Ubers to work and social outings. This is my personal experience.

From a professional standpoint, building and having bike lanes has been proven to:
1. not to cause traffic.
2. be good for businesses
3. improve safety for all road users
