As someone who uses this…

As someone who uses this bike lane, and bike lanes across the city as a safe and environmentally conscious way of getting around, I strongly urge and beg you not to go through with this. The bloor bike lane allows for safe biking and efficiency when getting around the city.

The downtown core of the city should be for walkers, bikers and those using transit. If someone chooses to own a vehicle and drive while living downtown, then they must understand they are the problem creating the traffic that they're frustrated sitting in.

This is such a huge move in the wrong direction for a forward thinking and modern city. For the normal human being who is living, working, and spending time downtown Toronto, biking is often the affordable and thoughtful way of getting around and its so incredibly disappointing to remove such a valuable lane that keeps bikers safe. please reconsider.
