Bike lanes should NOT be removed! Bike lanes are infrastructure, and are an important part of toronto’s transportation.
Bike lanes save lives from reckless drivers and car collisions.
Bike lanes alleviate traffic and it is absolutely proven that this is true!

Thank you for the opportunity to comment on this Bill - to the person who has to amalgamate all this information, I commend the work you do! Good luck :) My perspective is in regards to supporting the cycling infrastructure in Ontario.

I am very disturbed that the government is trying to pass bills that would allow them to trample all over current policies- because those polices show why the 413 is a terrible idea.

Gridlock can be reduced by removing vehicles from roads, which can be achieved by offering alternative transportation options, investing in public transport and installing cycle lanes. Removing cycles lanes will increase congestion.
I'm afraid we are mired in 1950's thinking, that we can continue to build more and more roads to accommodate more and more private vehicle traffic.

Taking away bike lanes is counter intuitive to the goal that is trying to be reached. By dedicating the lanes to cars it makes active transportation impossible and more dangerous.

There are a number of issues myself and other constituents have with the bill in its current form here: https://www.ola.org/sites/default/files/node-files/bill/document/pdf/2024/2024-10/b212_e.pdf

The roads that are designated to be built on the Greenbelt should not be allowed. Highway 413 should not be built near/on the Greenbelt. The Greenbelt should be protected. The priority of a road should never be at the expense of valuable land that protects people from Global Warming.

DO NOT REMOVE THE BIKE LANES! PLEASE BUILD MORE! MY OPTIONS ARE BIKE OR UBER. UBER ADDS A CAR TO THE ROAD! This is a no-brainer. If you waste taxpayer money on ripping out existing bike lanes, you are out come election time.

Please do not exempt highway 413 from the Environmental Assessment Act. More research and understanding is a good thing that should not be ignored. We live in a country that values and takes pride in the environment and our government should reflect that.

This proposal is so overreaching and misguided it would almost be funny if it weren't also intentionally cruel. I'm both a cyclist and a driver, and when I'm driving I love not having to worry about sharing a lane with a bike.

Toronto is facing a critical turning point in shaping a sustainable and efficient city. Law 212 limits the expansion of bike lanes, despite the proven environmental, health, and economic benefits that accessible cycling infrastructure offers.

Trying to make highways better is a lost cause, you could add 15 more lanes and traffic would still be just as bad. You don't care about making things better or easier for Ontario, you only care about making more money from the ultra-wealthy and wasting tax dollars.

What a joke this government is turning out to be! Studies after studies have shown that in order to reduce gridlock, you must give commuters the choice for great reliable ways to move. Increase the public transport offer if you really want to reduce gridlock. Invest in the future, not the past.

Absolutely backwards bill - as a driver, having more resources put on highway is not the direction and will only create more gridlocks and cost everyone more time and increase everyone's carbon footprint.
