It seems wildly counter productive to remove a piece of infrastructure that is working as intended and makes the city safer for non-vehicle commuters. This bill doesn't seem to consider the residents within the downtown core who naturally use the main streets to cycle between destinations. There's an innate amount of traffic that always exists on these main roads which these proposals won't change as intended. Removing the Bloor bike lanes will only spill the cycling traffic onto the roads or sidewalks. The side street bike lanes will induce a bit of bike traffic onto those streets but it more than likely won't have the desired effect of freeing up the main roads.

I hope enough local residents relay their thoughts about this as it seems only to benefit out of town commuters. I cycle every day and don't want what is already a relatively dangerous form of commuting to get even more dangerous. Please keep our city safe!
