As a road user in Toronto, I support the improvements in infrastructure our city council has made in researching and investing in evidence based methods to improve streets in the city.
It is wasteful and overreaching for the provincial government to decree that they will remove the investments the city has made in bicycle lanes and complete street projects. It is well known that adding lanes does not meaningfully reduce traffic times for motorists. Bicycle lanes add a level of safety for cyclists, and pedestrians and give newcomers to the growing city a non-motor vehicle-option to get around our large city.
I do not support the government's proposal to rip up complete streets without adequate consultation or designed options that will replace them and still meet the city's goals.
