Bill 212 is undemocratic, wasteful of taxpayer dollars, wasteful of road-space and hobbles local government in areas traditionally governed at the local level. It reduces the flexibility of our transportation systems and in most cases will have precisely the opposite of it's intended effect; creating more gridlock as more people drive and cycling becomes less viable. It is especially egregious to waste millions of taxpayer dollars removing services that we have spent millions to install. Where are the provisions to adequately study each case and act in accordance with best practices? Simplistic logic applied to transportation design is of no help and leads to congestion and deaths.
