Hi there,
I am a driver and drive my son to and from school every day between Bloor West and a private school in Mississauga. It can be quite a drive, especially if there is an accident on the QEW or on Cawthra. We have seen bad accidents at both locations since September, one with a med-evac with a helicopter coming down beside our car on Cawthra near Qew. . I do care about saving time, but even more important to me is reducing deaths on the road which bike lanes do, and, reducing the devastating impacts of climate change by Reducing our C02 emissions. It’s worth taking the extra time, Also, I like that traffic has slowed down a touch in our neighbourhood with the bike lanes. It has made road crossing safer for children and the elderly and reduced the incidence of speeding which has traditionally been a huge problem. Thank you, Maeve Sullivan
