I am writing to you today to oppose Doug Ford’s anti-bike lane legislation. Not only will it make our roads more unsafe for people who cycle, walk or drive it is also yet another overstep on the authority of municipalities.
Easing traffic congestion is about giving people more transportation options, not fewer.
Investing in public transit, healthier transportation choices such as bike infrastructure, public transit, and fostering 15-minute neighbourhoods will create a healthier future for Ontarians and future generations. Efforts should be directed to ensure communities are connected so that not every trip to school, to the store, or to work has to be taken by car.
As reported in a recent CBC article, the data is clear, building more car lanes and widening roads does not ease gridlock and building more bike lanes does not make it worse but in fact does the opposite.
The proposed legislation is ill-informed and should be opposed.
