I live in toronto and I…

I live in toronto and I usually lean more conservative but it's ridiculous to rip out the bike lanes we already have on university and floor. Those are essential central routes on setting up proper bike infrastructure for the city. Rather we should focus on existing routes and Making them safe and space efficient. For example our tree planters could be part of the barrier for the bike lanes at appropriate size instead of between side walk and bike lane. Often these tree/ planter or art installations are the same size as a the bike lane and are put between them and size walk which is causing road congestion. Rather planter and art sizes can be limited placed on road facing size separating bike lanes from roads, allowing us to free up road space whole keeping bike lanes. Further more on some street where lanes on either side are too big for road, we could have bikelanes going opposite directions placed on same side of the street, which prevents having to create 2 barriers on both sides of the road. Lastly the existing bike routes should be connected to more areas of the city.
