As an Ontario taxpayer who uses the bike lanes in Toronto almost daily - I can only say the proposal to remove existing bike lanes is entirely ignorant. It goes against study after study of data and will do nothing to combat the (real) issue of congestion in the city.
More often than not there are just as many bikes on some of the Bloor street sections as there are bikes! Not to mention, there are entire "car traffic lanes" dedicated to the storage of non-moving cars. Surely they should be targeted if the goal is to provide more space to moving cars?
On top of that, it is a frightful waste of money - some of the quotes I am seeing suggesting it will cost up to $50million to achieve. Ridiculous. Put that money instead into our failing healthcare system Mr Ford.
Fight the battles that actually need to be fought.
