Comment
The proposal to remove bike lanes is ludicrous and a drastic overreach of the provincial government.
The reintroduction of traffic lanes on these streets will simply increase the volume of cars on the road, it will not solve congestion.
Investment in good public transit will do far more to ease this problem, as well as maintaining and improving cycling infrastructure in the city.
Bike lanes keep motorist and cyclists safe. If they are removed, cyclists will continue to use the routes (Bloor, Yonge, etc.), except they will join motor traffic, making travel much more dangerous.
It will be unnecessarily costly and time-consuming to remove bike lanes that were so recently built. This Bill will not save anyone money or time.
