This bill does not make any sense. Why is the Province dealing with local matters?
Why does the Government of Ontario get to decide where bike lanes are put?
Bike lanes are good for the environment, peoples health, traffic, and are safer.
Think about how many single people drive in cars every day. If they could safely ride a bike, they might!
This would help solve traffic issues, as well as improve the community.
All this would do is make people buy and drive their cars more, which will cause more fatal accidents, increase pollution, cost of living, noise and yes, gridlock/traffic.
For bike lanes, if you make them full width (The same size as a car lane), you can also have emergency vehicles use it, like how they do in Europe. This would help save on emergency response time as well.
If you search about bike lanes have a positive impact. Does this bill cite any papers or research about how removing bike lanes benefit traffic?
Also, why is highway 413 now exempt from the Environmental Assessment Act? Just because you want to build highways, does not mean we can just ignore the Environment. We are already seeing the impacts of Climate change (like the recent floodings of Toronto). Why would we want to ignore the assessment that building a giant highway across farmland and wetland might cause the environment to have issues.
And this bill has a terrible name.
