Removing the bike lanes on…

Removing the bike lanes on Bloor, Yonge, and University is absolutely the wrong thing to do. Not only is it a waste of money -- both the money spent to install them and the money spent to take them out -- it can not be expected to meaningfully reduce congestion on those very busy streets, and it will only make accidents and fatalities of cyclists even more common than they already are.

What we need to be doing is making Toronto more livable for people without a car. If people are better able to get around by bike or mass transit options, they won't need to rely on cars to get everywhere.

This proposal is short-sighted, wasteful, destructive, and dangerous.
