We are in a climate crisis…

We are in a climate crisis and all levels of government need to make urgent changes to infrastructure to reduce our environmental impact. Bike lanes offer an emission free and efficient way to get around the province. We need to have good Bike infrastructure so Ontarians feel safe when using bike lanes. Local infrastructure is a municipal responsibility and this policy is an over reach in municipal authority. This new policy would delay new bike lanes and we can't afford this. Bike lanes also reduce traffic congestion and can move more people than cars. The Ontario government needs to start prioritizing active Transportation and not cars.
