Hello there,
As I'm sure many other people have commented (whether here or in countless other spheres of debate), this "anti-cycling" policy will do nothing to improve the mobility of Ontarians.
Even before the bike lanes, there was gridlock. And if the bike lanes are removed, there will still be gridlock. The concept is known as induced demand, which has been observed since the 30s. Building larger and more roads/highways "does not alleviate transportation congestion, it only aggravates it".
If the Ontario government was serious about improving mobility for Ontarians (including car drivers), it would mean giving people more options instead of making cars the only option. This includes bicycles, as well as diverse public transit options, and walking.
Many cities around the world have taken the lead to dismantle their car infrastructure in favour of more options. The result? Way less traffic, way happier and productive humans.
Why can't Toronto do the same?
