I have been riding my bike…

I have been riding my bike with my 9 yo daughter all around the west end of the city since Covid. Separated bike lanes means we can get to school, go shopping, and out to eat stress free. No worrying about parking or being stuck in traffic, but most of all I feel safer knowing we are protected from cars. Removing bike lanes will only make people more dependent on cars and will therefore increase congestion. Safe and viable Alternatives to cars are what a modern city needs. Toronto is about 50 years behind on public transit, for a city of its size. Tearing out bike lanes is a step backwards and complete idiocy!
