This proposal ignores all…

This proposal ignores all city and traffic planning principles, shows the province has little to no expertise on municipal planning and further indicating this proposal is a inappropriate jurisdictional over reach. I will elaborate the issues below:
1. This proposal ignores the traffic planning principle that remove bike lane or move them to less convenience location encourages more motor traffic onto the street, worsen gridlock by adding traffic.
2. This proposal ignores the traffic planning principle that put safety first. Traffic throughput should always be secondary to safety. Remove protective infrastructure is inevitably going to lead to more injury and fatality.
3. A study on Bloor street shows increasing in spending when bike lane is put in. Many new development advertising "bike score" and many business rely on bike lane for logistic. Neighborhood grown with bike lane now will face inevitable decline if bike lane are removed.
4. Last, the sprite of this proposal seems to be prioritizing the need of through traffic of a city by sacrificing the need of local communities. Should this not be the other way around?
