I am against this proposal…

I am against this proposal to remove the bike lanes on these major streets of Toronto. These routes are critical to cyclists navigating through the city, and see a huge amount of use. It is also incredibly important for us to maintain and continue to build more sustainable transportation options in the city, and biking lanes are central to this strategy - so removing them is a backward step in the wrong direction! There are numerous studies that show the community and environmental benefits of cities moving away from being car-traffic oriented, and removing bike lanes is a terrible idea if we want to achieve these benefits. Don't remove the bike lanes. There are other ways to address traffic congestion without ruining the network for alternate modes of transportation. Prioritizing car traffic over these alternate transportation methods is wrong and a step backwards.
