Removing bike lanes can lead to increased traffic congestion. Decisions regarding the addition of bike lanes should remain at the municipal level, as they are integral to urban and city planning.

Many cyclists, myself included, also own cars but choose biking as a preferred mode of transportation for its lifestyle benefits. Without dedicated bike lanes, cyclists may resort to sharing the road with cars, raising the risk of accidents. Alternatively, some may use sidewalks, which compromises the city’s walkability.

Maintaining existing bike lanes preserves commuting options and ensures inclusivity by accommodating diverse modes of mobility.
