Removing bike lanes in…

Removing bike lanes in Toronto's downtown core is a terrible idea. I personally know three cyclists killed on our roads. I see motorists driving dangerously, on their cell phones and speeding every day without any apparent enforcement. Bike lanes save lives. Construction vehicles are often blocking traffic. A better idea would be to allow large trucks into the city at night, like most large cities in Europe. This would certainly help alleviate gridlock. On that note I have seen cement truck running reds way past when it is safe to do so and pedestrians have entered the intersection. With all the condos going up there will only be more and more cars on the road and increased gridlock. Build better transit (finish the Eglinton Crosstown!) and make the roads safer for ALL taxpayers.
