Comment
I respectfully disagree with Bill 212. Removing bike lanes in favor of traffic lanes might seem like a quick fix for gridlock, but in the long run, it's counterproductive. Bike lanes encourage sustainable transportation, reduce our carbon footprint, and promote healthier lifestyles. Additionally, they can ease traffic congestion by offering viable alternatives to car travel.
Investing in bike infrastructure is cost-effective over time, as it lowers road maintenance costs and supports environmental goals. Instead of removing bike lanes, we should focus on strategies that balance all forms of transportation while prioritizing sustainability and long-term benefits.
