1. Grid lock is caused by lack of transport alternatives to driving and poor zoning and planning in the GTA. If it were possible for people to walk, bike, and or transit, to their work, their home, and daily amenities, we would solve grid lock. Making fewer transit options by getting rid of bike lanes will increase drivers and make grid lock even worse.
2. Bikes are being used as a scapegoat here. Construction, Uber and other such delivery services, and a sudden population increase with little or no infrastructure improvements are most likely far larger contributors to grid lock than anything else. If we are serious about reducing grid lock we should be managing these issues better.
3. It is irresponsible for government officials to use scapegoating and emotional theatre instead of data to make policy. These politicians are obscuring the truth and preventing diligent rational decisions from being made.
