This proposal is a terrible…

This proposal is a terrible idea, I have lived in Toronto for more than 10 years and bike infrastructure is the best solution to traffic congestion in downtown. Since the installation of bike lanes on major roads, more commuters including myself can bike for short trips within the city instead of driving, and I can see a significant improvement to traffic on University Ave and Bloor St. Without bike lanes, tens of thousands of commuters like myself will have no choice but to drive to downtown and exacerbate the traffic. It has been proven across the world that bike infrastructure and public transportation are the only effective solution to traffic congestion in cities, and it has also been proven over and over again that adding car lanes only exacerbate the traffic due to induced demand. Leave the decision on bike infrastructure to the city and the whole province will benefit.
