Removing existing bike lanes…

Removing existing bike lanes to improve car traffic, would be blatantly ignoring all of the data showing otherwise. In at least one case in Toronto, removing bike lanes actually INCREASED car travel times. The proposed move would make traffic worse, but cyclists at risk, and cost unecessary tax payer money. On top of that, climate change has become a very immediate and terrifying threat. Why would we push for more car usage and traffic, instead of focusing on better cycling and public transit infrastructure?
