As someone who frequently…

As someone who frequently commutes into downtown with a car and is aware of the traffic issues, removing bike lanes is the complete opposite of a 'fix' the bill claims to do. It's pretty clear allowing more space for cars to be on the road does not improve traffic and the 401 is the perfect example. At least anecdotally, more lanes gave more hypothetical car allowance, but it only further increased the problem as we now have more confusion when it comes to cars merging, needing to exit by crossing more lanes etc etc. It would honestly be a better investment to teach drivers how to properly drive since we're all coming from countries of different driving ideologies and the current transfer policies make it too simple for someone to own a license in Canada. This doesn't even speak to the fact that the transit systems in Ontario should just be better in general so that we can have better alternatives to driving, but that's an entirely different can of worms which I'm sure the provincial government is aware of.

We should be having options for ALL modes of transportation. The more evenly spread we are in moderation to accommodate the needs of the public the better.
