Dear Provincial…

Dear Provincial Representatives,
I am concerned with the decision of the Province to remove the bike lanes on our roads. I use these regularly during my commute and these protected bike way are necessary piece of infrastructure that promotes, road safety ( reduces automobile traffic and speeds). The city needs more alternatives to get around the city with having amenities accessible via non-automobile commutes is essential to a vibrant city. The bike lanes are a step forward, which need more time to show its full benefits.
The province needs to consult the experts in these fields rather than unilaterally going against it for short term political gain to the detriment of generations to come.
Thank you for listening and I hope proposal 212 is reconsidered and stopped. Also the city of Toronto can make its own decisions on what is best for its residents and we don’t need the provincial body to overstep. Look at London and Montreal for examples
