This is going to be terrible for the traffic. Is it well known that adding road lanes doesn´t increase efficiency. This is known as the Braess's paradox. The cycle lanes were only installed after carefully being analyzed the impacts of their inclusion as a way to diversify the means of transportation. The removal of bike lanes will increase the congestion at best and cause deaths at worst.
Also, this bill removes the need to do the environmental assessment to build the 417. This is terrible and a step back towards good policies.
Finally, it will be a waste of tax payer dollars to remove the lanes. This money could be used in the healthcare system or the education since currently it is were it is most needed
