Although the city of Toronto…

Although the city of Toronto is experiencing a tremendous amount of congestion and gridlock it is not caused by the existing bike lanes. I commute two days a week through downtown find that construction is the major issue impacting our roads. Lanes are blocked for condo construction as well as major infrastructure projects like the Ontario Line. Bike lanes provide cyclists with safe, predictable and dedicated spaces on the road that increase everyone’s safety and I am happy to share the road. It’s appalling that our provincial government is willing to sacrifice the safety of Toronto cyclists and waste a tremendous amount of money for this political stunt. The Ford government should stick to governing the entire province and focus their attention on health care and education rather than municipal bike lanes.
