I believe this proposed bill…

I believe this proposed bill is against the best interests of Ontario & Toronto residents. There has been a large increase in bike riders in the city, and having dedicated bike lanes is better for these riders AND automobile drivers. There will be no significant drop in bikers in Toronto, so removing bike lanes will put these riders on regular lanes, further slowing down and frustrating automobile drivers. The amount of delivery bikers will not decrease, the number of delivery drivers on regular lanes will simply increase.
There has also been numerous tragic deaths of bikers this year, removing bike lanes puts more riders at risk of death and injury.
The province should instead focus on building better transit infrastructure to reduce the number of cars on the road, give the people better transit options and they will opt to use it, over driving and increasing gridlock.
The current government’s priorities and proposals are misguided and should be refocused elsewhere, rather than wasting time and money removing valuable bike lanes.
