Removing bike lanes in the…

Removing bike lanes in the City of Toronto (or anywhere) will not improve traffic. Instead, more people will elect to use cars because they don’t have a safe bike option and traffic will worsen. And of course, there will be more cyclist fatalities at a time when we are trying to get to zero.

There is no evidence behind this proposal. It’s shamefully knee jerk. I live in the affected area (Toronto’s west end) and I also see traffic as a problem. Nobody likes the current traffic situation in Toronto. This proposal won’t fix it and is a giant waste of time and taxpayer money. Please design policy that will fix the issue and use taxpayer money appropriately.
