Please do not send Ontario…

Please do not send Ontario traffic back in time to when everyone had to drive a car or take the transit. Our transit system cannot accommodate everyone who would ride it if it were more convenient.
Safe bike lanes remove cars from the roads, significantly reducing traffic. The appeal to people who reject bike lanes only serves the self-indulgence of those who can afford a car. Removing bike lanes actually increases their commute times in most cases.
This is in addition to the environmental problems when downtowns are clogged with traffic. Note the measures that were taken in London England to reduce cars in their core. The healthiest and most efficient coyotes for commuter transport are those which encourage cycling through protected bike lanes.
