Removing bike lanes reduces the transportation options available to commuters, particularly those who rely on connections to transit systems. This limitation undermines the substantial provincial and municipal investments in public transit, which aim to create integrated, sustainable networks offering residents a variety of efficient travel choices. Eliminating bike lanes jeopardizes the overall effectiveness of an integrated transit system and diminishes the potential for smooth connections between cycling and public transit. This ultimately hinders efforts to create a more connected and sustainable city. Protecting bike lanes also protects signficant taxpayer-funded investments by ensuring a well-rounded, multi-modal transportation network.
