Bill 212's proposal to remove existing bike lanes on key routes, and hamper the addition of new ones, is dismayingly regressive and myopic. Rather than re-imagining urban planning for the future, the proposal doubles down on the archaic car-centric way of life by setting up the wrong incentives and dooming the possibility of more inclusive, healthy, environmentally-friendly modes of movement. From personal experience as well as common sense, bike lanes in general, and protected bike lanes in particular, are critical in inviting more and more commuters to embrace bikes as a viable short-distance commuting option.
We need more and better biking infrastructure, not less. Please, please don't take this away from us.
