I'm deeply concerned about the province's proposals to restrict municipal efforts in creating and maintaining bike lanes, including plans to remove existing bike infrastructure in Toronto. The provincial government should not be adding unnecessary red tape and bureaucracy to hinder local governments striving to expand transportation options. As a daily cyclist, I rely on bike lanes for safe, efficient travel; they are essential transportation infrastructure, much like sidewalks, that enhance safety for all road users.
Rather than maximizing road space solely for cars, we need to focus on providing safe, viable transportation choices for vulnerable road users, including cyclists and pedestrians. These lanes not only protect cyclists but also improve the driving experience; when I drive, I much prefer cyclists having a designated space, away from main traffic. Additionally, bike lanes support public transit investments by providing more convenient, safe access to transit stations, reducing the need for short car trips. I urge you to support Toronto’s bike infrastructure, which is essential for a safe, multimodal city that serves everyone effectively.
