My daughter and her…

My daughter and her boyfriend who live in downtown Toronto use the bike lanes year round .It is safe , convenient , environmentally conscious, saves money ,quicker commute and they don’t have to take time looking for parking spaces .When I was visiting my daughter in June , I was so happy to be able to easily rent and use a bike to get around . The bike lanes made our travel around the city so easy . There is a lot of construction and I feel that is contributing to a lot of congestion . Also the street cars seem to cause a lot of traffic to back up because they stop a lot . Why not use more buses instead ? Getting rid of the bike lanes will only put more cars on the road and more expense for people . Biking is a great form of exercise and is good for the environment. Millions of people a year are renting the bikes . It is a great way for people to see more and enjoy more of the city. I felt safe biking and would not feel safe driving in Toronto and surrounding areas as a visitor from New Brunswick . I feel getting rid of the bike lanes does a huge disservice to the city and will not have a big impact on traffic flow as proposed in this bill .
