This is a stupid idea. Safe…

This is a stupid idea. Safe bike lanes, protected from traffic, encourage more people to use them and thus *decrease* congestion. Not to mention it's a horrible waste of public funds to destroy useful, already existing infrastructure -- funds that could be used to improve existing roads, fix bridges, put in more actual bike lanes instead of unsafe bike gutters, etc. I don't want this precedent to be set. If Toronto allows such stupidity, other cities in Ontario will follow.
