Every person on a bike is one less person in a car by themselves which improves the flow for cars or buses. People need safe cycling lanes and the more safe lanes means more people will cycle. Holland used to be car centric but their implementation of lots of safe cycle tracks means thousands of fewer cars on the road. The only ways to improve traffic flow is to make public transit fast, efficient and affordable and to have safe cycle tracks. There is overwhelming evidence that more lanes for cars does not improve flow because all that does is encourage more people to drive thinking it improves their commute times.
Premier Ford needs to get his head out of the sand and read the thousands of reports showing that creating more lanes for cars is a self defeating plan. It never works.
Remove Bill 212 and shred it for good.
