Bike lanes do not cause gridlock; cars do. If you build more roads, or remove the bike lanes to add another, more cars will drive on them. We have seen this with how many lanes on the 401 now? And the majority of cars carry ONE person. The amount of space a car takes up for ONE person is ludicrous. Perhaps tolls for those who live out of the city and drive in should be implemented? I was against them for a long time, but have changed my tune. Also, maybe we should invest in the TTC instead of wasting more tax payer money on removing bike lanes. I have read that it will cost MORE to remove them than it did to put them in!
If the bikes lanes in Toronto are removed, I hope that the car drivers will love even more gridlock when I and my family start biking in the middle of the road. Bike lanes keep cyclists ( as well as drivers and pedestrians) safe. If you build them, they will bike! It just takes some time and patience for folks to feel safe enough to use them.
