I strongly oppose Bill 212—it will not save anyone time, it will make gridlock worse, and it will be a huge waste of money.
- Bike lanes are a part of the transportation infrastructure and reduce overall wait times.
- Bike lanes provide a basic guarantee of safety for pedestrians, drivers, and cyclists.
- Bike lanes make driving easier by not having to share with bicycles.
- Bike lanes support transit investments by connecting the "last mile" between destinations.
- Businesses and residences have already built infrastructure to take advantage of bike lanes; removing them will kill those investments.
Bill 212 is government red tape at its worst—it punishes people for choosing their mode of travel, it wastes money better put elsewhere, and to top it off, it will make things worse for everyone! Those cyclists will directly compete with drivers for space on the road.
