Bill 212 will make the roads more dangerous for cyclists and cars alike. Cyclists will still use the roads and intermingle with the car traffic. Any 'gains' in automobile speed from point A to B will be offset with increased accidents. Large cities should have the safety of all modes of transportation in the forefront of planning. Toronto has high traffic of all kinds, foot, cycling and automobile, along the busy streets proposed to remove bike lanes, like Yonge.
Removing bike lanes in congested, well traveled areas, is doing a disservice to anyone budget conscious, health conscious or environmentally conscious enough to make the effort not to use a car. Do not devalue their efforts by prioritizing a slight increase in automobile flow.
