The existence of bike lanes…

The existence of bike lanes a key feature of road safety for all users. Separating vehicles and uses that travel at different speeds is common sense. The argument that bike lanes cause congestion is absurd. Congestion is caused by road construction. The city of Toronto's population has increased by 40% in twenty years, and a significant number of this population use cars to get around. road capacity has not increased by 40%, so it is no wonder we have congestion. The solution is to get people out of cars, onto transit and bikes. That is how you solve congestion.
