I seriously believe Bill 212 should rethink the notion of taking away bike lanes in Toronto. By removing bike lanes, you are taking away a safe avenue for many Torontonians' commute. Removing will not reduce congestion. Read more

Bike lanes are why I love toronto. It makes absolutely no sense to remove them. Please stop making highways. 413 is ridiculous, another highway is not the solution. Tax cars that enter the city on daily commutes. Increase the volume of trains. Build more bike lanes. Please. Read more

It is foolish to think that building more highways will reduce gridlock. Our tax dollars would be better spent subsidizing the use of already existing toll highways and improving public transportation.

If the Premier is committed to reducing commute times at all cost without referencing any data to support his decisions, he should probably just outlaw traffic lights, stop signs, and pedestrian crosswalks next. Read more

Indigenous consultation and environmental scans are NOT OPTIONAL. Do them first as is required. If your highway is as great as you say it will be why not back that up with some facts before you build it to prove so? Planning to take land from suburbanite owners is NOT cool either. Read more

Yo, listen up, it’s time to take a stand, Bill 212’s got us feeling out of hand. They say it’s for the gridlock, saving us some time, But building more highways? That ain’t no rhyme. We need solutions, not more concrete, Invest in transit, make our cities complete. Read more

Please do not remove our bike lanes. We need to keep humans who choose non-motorized vehicle options safe as well. Taking away bike lanes to prioritize vehicles will not solve the gridlock problem. You cannot solve a problem with the same thinking that created it! Read more

I am very against this proposal. Bike lanes save lives, and the removal of them does not mean the removal of cyclists. I purposefully don't drive (and instead bike or transit everywhere) and a big reason is to help make this city a better place. Read more

I use the bike lanes on Yonge Street to connect to Bloor street several times per week. Before the installation of these dedicated lanes I did not ride my bike or bike share down Yonge street because of the risk of riding in traffic. Read more

I demand my elected officials make data-driven investments. Data CONSISTENTLY does not indicate that removing bike lanes will appreciably decrease commutes. Data does indicate this will increase cyclist injuries and fatalities. Read more

Remove street parking, not bike lanes. Bloor St W, University Ave, and Yonge st all have on street parking. In the interest of getting the city moving, if any chance needs to occur, it should start with removing stationary road blockages. Remove street parking, not bike lanes.
