As a Toronto resident and frequent user of the Bloor Street, University Avenue, and College Street bike lanes, I would like to state my strong opposition to Bill 212. Time saved for drivers should not come at the expense of biker safety. The removal of bike lanes in Toronto and other Ontario cities will lead to many cyclists opting to drive or ride-share in these locations rather than cycle, worsening traffic gridlock. Those that choose to cycle without the safety of bike lanes will be much more at risk for injury or death by collision with motor vehicles. This bill is bad for Ontario and should not be passed.
