I do not support Bill 212’s proposal for removal of bike lanes that reduce traffic lanes. Requiring approval by the Ministry would cost money, time, and resources not currently spent. It is an indication of further overreach and red tape by a government that says it is against red tape. Further, the removal of existing lanes would result in more dangerous roads for all road users as speed and lack of awareness of humans on the street grow, and it would leave those who cannot drive with fewer options to move in their cities. Everyone deserves to feel like they belong in their city - with this overreach, you are forcing decisions to be made by people who are not connected to the community, for the people who make up that community. The only outcome can be a less connected, less human environment.
