We should not be adding vehicular lanes on top of high-level transit modes below. Biking is first and last mile public transit allowing people to safe get to their subway station.
2 of the bike lanes run through University of Toronto. These are staff and students that take transit and cycle. 26% of students cycle to classes.
If this legislation is about "scientific" addressing of traffic, release the data of how many people cycle in these affected neighbourhoods. If I cycle to the subway and transit rest of the way to work, am I cycling or transiting to work? What about those that use their bikes to get to classes, errands, shopping, and other weekly transportation needs.
The Province should be covering 100% of the costs to remove this and not leaving Toronto taxpayers left to pay. The people of Scarborough or North Etobicoke should not have their city services reduced because the Province was too cheap to cover the costs downloaded on to city.
