I use the yonge bike lane everyday and it is so precious to my safety that it remains accessible.

The road goes downhill around summerhill station and lots of cars turn right on the smaller streets. It's clear that the bike lane offers an incredible security to the cyclist like me.

I have been hit by a car while I was biking on the part of Yonge street that doesn't have a bike lane and although it wasn't a big accident since I was going slowly, it's clear that more accidents will happen without the separate lanes.

The neighborhood is also so much more interesting to be in since the bike lane is in place. There are a lot of restaurants with outdoors terrace that would be unpleasant if there was more traffic.

I ask that you move back from this project and continue to ensure people's safety and the enjoyment of the neighborhood.
