I live in the East End of Toronto along the Bloor/Danforth line and cycle to work all year. In 2015 (Before the east Bloor bike lane extensions) I was hit by an car as I was cycling to work and I thought I would never cycle again on Danforth. But then the city installed bike lanes, which allowed me to build the confidence to ride on Danforth again.
Bike lanes don't only save lives, but give people the confidence they need to use alternative transport. If I didn't have a bike lane I would be driving to work, adding another vehicle to the streets so everyone who absolutely needs to drive to work, gets delayed a little bit more.
I implore you to please read the research on the benefits of bike lanes in our cities. We need more and more ways to help people choose alternative transport to the automobile.
