If this bill is passed, it will massively impact the safety of both Toronto residents, and Ontario Citizens. Cycling is a critical form of transportation for many, especially in densely populated city where it is very expensive to own, drive, and store a vehicle. Taking away this critical form of infrastructure will only be a bandaid fix to the solution. Increasing the lanes of traffic will only encourage a car centric built-environment, excluding those who don’t have access to a car and will only temporarily reduce grid lock. The solution isn’t to keep expanding the number of car lanes, but to prioritize other forms of transportation that are better on the environment and ultimately more efficient in densely populated cities like Toronto.
