I am very disappointed to hear about the pending removal of bike lanes in the Toronto core. This is key infrastructure that enables people to stay active, reduce pollution, and reduce traffic and noise. I use these lanes to get around the Bloor West area often, as does the rest of my family. Mixing bikes with cars without bike lanes increases physical risk to cyclists. Bike lane infrastructure takes a while to take hold as people trust that there are sufficient networks of lanes to get around the whole city. The solution is to add more lanes as opposed to making less. Also, this is a significant provincial over-reach; stay out of local politics and city planning! People who live in the suburbs should not dictate what happens in the inner core. People who don't like to sit in traffic can use the TTC/go trains. Doug Ford, you should try the Go Train!
