Bill 212 will put lives at risk and will not solve traffic congestion.

As an avid cyclist I am alarmed that Premier Ford has again taken a car centric position on the use of our public roadways. There is no data to support his position that increasing the number of lanes of traffic will ease congestion. A comprehensive network of bike lanes is crucial to the safety of current and future bike commuters. Community members, local expertise, professional planners and engineers must be allowed to continue to build this network without the interference of the province.

For the health and safety of all road users, for the climate, and for building live-able communities, Municipalities must be allowed to install bike lanes where they see fit.
