Bike lines have been added to Eglington Ave West of Yonge street in 2024 and they have created traffic jams from 3 pm to 7 pm every night since they removed lanes . The traffic if backed up from Avenue Road to Duplex Ave going west and now only 1 lane for traffic each way. We need the intervention from the Province of Ontario and common sense here as radical interests are ruining the livability of the city. The bike lanes are used predominantly by uber eats/door dash and ebikes/scooter at high rates of speed and with minimal usage. This doesn't even account for the winter months when it will not be used at all. There is no room for emergency vehicles and I see fire truck/ambulance/police struggle to get by the traffic jams.

I fully support the Ford Government to intervene and remove bike lanes that are not being used the majority of the time.
