I just want to register my objection to the proposed removal of bike lanes from the city, especially noting Bloor St.

One of the big changes in Toronto, for the positive, in the last 5 years has been the uptake of cycling, as evidenced, for example, by the massive increase in usage of the Toronto Bike Share.

Global cities around the world are investing in cycle infrastructure: London, New York etc. in these cities it is the norm for traffic arteries to include cycle lanes. These are cities that suffer from worse congestion than Toronto, yet understand the benefits to all road users or shifting journeys to bikes from cars and taxis.
