Banning bike lanes on Bloor, Yonge, and University makes no rational sense.

Right now we have 2 lanes of driving, two lanes of parking, and two bike lanes.

If you ban bike lanes and go back to 4 driving lanes then all that is going to happen is that one lane on each side will turn into a parking lane.

So we'll have two lanes of driving and two lanes of parking all for the goal of making roads less safe for cyclists.

As well, cyclists will then just be forced to take the whole lane in order to protect their safety which will just force cars to go much slower than they are now.

You are literally creating more congestion with this plan. It is completely unfathomable how this legislation is being debated thinking you are solving traffic problems when all the bill will do is literally make the problem worse.
