The Provincial government…

The Provincial government should not be adding more regulations and red tape to Cities across Ontario. The added process of Provincial oversight for new and existing bike lanes WASTES TAXPAYERS DOLLARS. My family uses bike lanes daily to commute to work, get to local stores and enjoy different parts of Toronto without the need for a personal vehicle. At the end of the day, bike lanes provide safety to more road users than just cars. As a Driver, I much prefer cyclists to have their own designated lane because it significantly reduces the mixing of the two modes of transportation and I feel better knowing that I won't accidentally cut off or hit someone. If bike lanes are taken out, people will feel unsafe and will need to rely on driving personal vehicles and Ubers to get around the City, therefore, making traffic WORSE.
