Commentaire

I am a driver, a cyclist, and a pedestrian. However I am travelling, bike lanes make my trip safer. As a driver, I want to know where other road users are. As a cyclist, I want to make it home to have dinner with my kids.

The idea of removing bike lanes is a preposterous waste of tax payer money and will ultimately lead to more congestion, not less.

I'm struggling to even find words because the evidence is so overwhelmingly in support of the benefits of bike lanes to make our roads safer, increase physical activity, move more people faster, reduce air pollution and its impacts on our health, support local businesses by making it easier for travellers to stop in along the way, and yes, reduce road congestion.

I urge you abandon Bill 212, which will not reduce gridlock and will only further waste Ontarians' time and money.
