It's important to realize that the estimate of 1.2% of bike riders is incorrect. The number of riders in downtown Toronto is closer to 10%. If every one of those bikes was a car, just think of the traffic congestion and also the increased carbon emissions.
Since the bike lanes have been added, biking is safer. Whole families bike together safely. Forcing bikes, especially with young children, to ride in car traffic is very dangerous. The only alternative, then, is for bikes to ride on the sidewalk, which is inconvenient and dangerous for pedestrians.
The proposal is a waste of money, will be dangerous, and the gridlock of the deconstruction will take a long time, causing more delay.
Please listen to the people of Toronto.
