Our 4 member family lives in Toronto and we all use bikes to commute to school and work.
Parked cars, construction, deliveries, Uber pickups and drop offs are bigger sources of congestion than bike lanes.
If bike lanes are removed, cyclists will need to share the same lane with cars, causing greater congestion for drivers and endangering lives.
Global megacities like Paris and NYC are all increasing bike lanes for the benefit of their citizens. How is it that experts (who actually study the data) all across the world support bike lanes, but the Premier knows better? And why rush ahead without waiting for any up-to-date evidence to inform policy decisions?
Municipal governments have the competence and data analyses to make the correct decisions regarding bike lanes. The provincial government should focus on its areas of responsibility, such as health and education.
