Bike lane decisions should be left to municipalities as they better understand local needs. Roads must be made safe for all users, cyclists, pedestrians and drivers.

"City Hall report:

- Cost $75 million in direct costs and sunk costs.
- Make traffic much, much worse for at least nine months during construction to remove lanes
- Have minimal long-term impact on car travel times."
(Matt Elliott, Bluesky post)

And will also make roads unsafe for cyclists. So this bill is not solving anything, and it not addressing long term solutions to the traffic problems: better transit, better and safe alternatives to driving.
