I use the bike corridor on bloor and university nearly every day. Most of the people I know who live in the city also use these bike lanes regularly. Very few people I know who live downtown drive - and I say that as a driver myself! The reality is, if you live downtown, the most practical and efficient way to commute is biking. And those who think that biking isn’t safe prefer to use the TTC - NOT drive. The solution is to continue to make the bike lanes safer, not rip them out. The statistics that only 2% of people in the city commute is disingenuous. You need only spend 10 minutes downtown to see that these corridors are highly utilized. Who are we trying to serve with this bill? Those who live in Toronto? Apparently not. This bill will actively harm downtown residents, for a goal that it is likely not going to achieve. Commuters to downtown should have better public transport. More cyclist deaths and more car gridlock (by disincentivizing alternative forms of transportation) will be on your hands.
