Bike lanes create a safe…

Bike lanes create a safe space for cyclists to access the city. Not only do they keep the road organized and safer for cyclists, drivers and pedestrians, they promote clean, carbon free transportation. This is a growing necessity as the climate crisis continues to worsen. Cycling also promotes healthy living styles through physical activity, additionally providing positive support to people’s mental health. Removing cycling lanes after the time spent with the public to install bike lane access, would be a step backwards for the government to take. It would be making the roads less safe for every user. Taking bike lanes away doesn’t mean cyclists will stop biking, it means cycling will be more dangerous, for bike riders and drivers. Bike lanes keep everyone on the road safe, they should not be removed from our city streets.
