Statut du commentaire

This bill seems aimed at maintaining a status quo of car-centric thinking in this province. This is not a forward-thinking policy. Adding lanes of traffic for cars to use increases the number of cars in those lanes. Lire davantage

Statut du commentaire

There are several issues with this proposed legislation and the talking points associated with it, not the least of which are the misguided notions (not supported by evidence) that bicycle lanes increase car traffic congestion and also reduce business volume at enterprises along their routes.

This proposed legislation goes against all available data regarding transportation needs within cities. It also goes against all proposed emission-reduction measures, works against an increase in sustainable modes of travel through modal-share. Lire davantage

The idea to limit or abandon bike lane projects is going to a) increase congestion, because cars will need to slow down to safely pass cyclists; b) increase bike accidents, when cyclists take the lane, as they are legally allowed to do; and Lire davantage

Hi I live in Whitehorse, Yukon, but grew up in Ontario and visit my brother and his family in Toronto often. I do not support the proposed Bill 212 for the following reasons: Lire davantage

I do not agree with this proposal whatsoever. Bloor and Yonge street have subway lines - let’s optimize to get people to bike or take transit, not cars. There were studies done of Bloor street when these bike lanes were put in and the delay was less than a minute. Lire davantage

Please look into the research. Studies have proven that adding more lanes does not improve congestion in the long term. However providing alternatives - like a safe biking route - does improve congestion. Lire davantage

Bicycle infrastructure is an essential cornerstone of sustainable and equitable cities, and this is moving us backwards decades. Lire davantage

There is no science nor statistic that demonstrates that getting rid of bike lanes will decrease congestion. There are plenty of studies showing the opposite. In this time of climate change we should be encouraging environmentally friendly forms of transportation. Lire davantage

This seems completely completely unnecessary and expensive provincial oversight of a naturally city centered issue. I drive and bike. This wont help with congestion on major highways at all. It will probably increase congestion downtown. Get to work on some real traffic issues please.

Around the world, there are concrete examples of major cities benefitting from the addition of thoughtful, well-designed cycling networks. It is a dangerous precedent to create legislation where the province overrides decisions made by municipalities. Lire davantage

This bill represents a large step backwards societally. Why does the province believe it should be able to dictate what works for a municipality? This is significant overreach and should be examined further. Lire davantage

Removing bike lanes is the opposite direction we, and smart cities, should be moving. Removing bike lanes does NOT reduce traffic, and just fuels the car vs cyclist war. Just yesterday I was going to bike home but haven’t felt safe to do so, and took an Uber instead. Lire davantage

This is a regressive proposal which I do not support as an Ontarian, Torontonian, or local commuter. Making urban spaces more car-centric is hurting the city, the environment, and the public health. It is shameful and should be opposed.

I am very concerned that bike lanes are going to be restricted by a law without input from the municipalities which have the eyes, ears and knowledge to make those decisions. Lire davantage

I am heartbroken to hear that you would remove infrastructure for the most efficient mode of transportation. Getting around the city by bike is faster, cleaner and saves me tons of money. Please please please don’t do this. Lire davantage

This is going to get a lot of people killed with no benefit. If you want to fix traffic, get people out of cars. This is a bad law and everybody responsible should be ashamed.

Statut du commentaire

I am extremely disappointed in and opposed to this legislation. It is well understood in the field of urban planning that increasing road capacity does not improve congestion due to induced demand (1). The most effective way to reduce congestion is to provide viable alternatives to driving. Lire davantage
