Bike lanes are important reduce gridlock and save lives.
you should encourage more people to bike rather than drive.
If bike lanes are removed, the people who were biking will still need to get to their destinations.
the Highway Traffic Act allows a bike to take up an entire lane. Safety for both cars and cyclists is best implemented by keeping the two away from each other.
Combining the bikes on the streets creates more traffic and even more dangerous biking conditions.

If road space and extra lanes are so important, take out the on-street parking! In cities like Toronto, it is impossible to fit everyone in cars as the primary mode of transportation.

Biking and public transit are the most efficient and economical way to move people across the city and we need our infrastructure to support that.
