This Bill puts in danger so many Toronto commuters who are not drivers. Bike lanes are essential to the safety of cyclists and pedestrians and serves as critical infrastructure for the growing economy of bike food carriers. It infringes on the rights of these workers to a safe work environment and on the City of Toronto's jurisdiction to manage their own municipal traffic concerns. Bill 212 also dangerously ignores the research and expertise of urban planner who have conducted study's to show the counter: bike lanes reduce traffic congestion. The root cause of gridlock in the city is the amount of construction in the city. This Bill reflects the willed ignorance and spiteful governance of the Ford administration than it does reliable leadership.
