THIS IS IDIOTIC. WILL NOT…

THIS IS IDIOTIC.

WILL NOT REDUCE TRAFFIC. MASSIVE WASTE OF MY TAX MONEY. WILL MAKE STREETS LESS SAFE. 0 SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE TO SUPPORT THIS DECISION.

I KNOW THIS IS JUST ANOTHER SCAM TO GIVE DOUG FORDS PAVING BUDDIES ANOTHER CONTRACT. CONSTRUCTION WILL JUST CAUSE MORE CONGESTION AND WILL TAKE FOREVER LEAVING THE STREET AN ABSOLUTE MESS FOR YEARS.

I AM 1000% AGAINST BIKE LANE REMOVAL AS A CAR OWNER AND CYCLIST.

CARS CAUSE TRAFFIC. WHEN YOU ARE IN TRAFFIC YOU ARE TRAFFIC.

If the lanes are removed we will be left with one lane of traffic and then a bunch of cars (uber/delivery drivers) parked or standing in the right lane. When I'm on my bike I will purposely take the left lane and impede traffic because as a biker I’m legally allowed to do that and there’s literally nothing you can do about it.

Modern cities aren’t car centric and Toronto is a modern city.

The ONLY way to reduce traffic is to give people safe alternatives. That is the ONLY way. Bike lanes are the CHEAPEST most effective way to achieve this.

Hey Doug, why don’t you focus on finishing the Eglinton LRT. A kid born when that started construction is now in high school. Think about that. What an absolute catastrophe of a provincial project. And you want a tunnel under the 401? NEVER going to happen. Ripping up bike lanes as a response to your total incompetence and inability to get any viable transit projects done seems like the measure taken by someone still in diapers having a temper tantrum.

Grow up.
