This is a waste of taxpayers money. The government needs to focus on providing more public transits and more bike lanes to fight the fact that there are too many cars on the road. This is totally the wrong way to about fixing the conjestion issue.
We need more bike lanes!!!! As a young student with a disability in Toronto, transit has become a place of anxiety for me. The TTC is often WAY too packed making it feel like a can of sardines, running late and not safe.

municipalities should maintain control to make decisions surrounding municipal roads. i believe we should be INCREASING infrastructure designed to keep the public safe on the roads, not removing it.
cyclists deserve safety when traveling.

I commute to and from work, as well run errands and visit friends and family using my bicycle as my main mode of transportation. I am a registered nurse at TGH and riding my bike is an essential part of maintaining my physical and emotional wellness.

This is an egregious overstep of power from the provincial government. This will not help with traffic and will only cause bikers to be put in harm's way. Induced demand is also a concern not considered in this proposal.

There would be no gridlock if people weren't forced back to the office.
The bike lanes aren't the problem here, it's the dismantling of Canada through corporations and shady business practices.

Why are you wasting my tax dollars? Spending money on putting bike lanes and spending money again removing it.
Congestion is not caused by bike lanes, it’s cause by irresponsible driver who parks everywhere and disrupt the flow of traffic.

I oppose this act, it is short sighted and uninformed.
Cyclists do not cause gridlock, a car dependent society with insufficient means of alternative transit causes gridlock. You will make gridlock worse if you pass this legislation.

This is backwards and insane and has nothing to do with working for the people. Please follow the actual data and research done, not just by the local municipalities and BIAs, but also around the world.

This is an overreach of provincial power. Why is the province wasting its time and resources micro managing municipalities?
Second, ripping out existing bike lanes is just a stupid waste of money.

Please reconsider this legislation. We want bike lanes. Ripping them out is a waste of money and will not solve any congestion problems. This is bad, vindictive policymaking
Hello,
I wanted to take time out and express my displeasure at the proposal of removing the bike lanes from streets.
I think it is regressive and frankly speaking a stupid move to remove the bike lanes which are already installed.

This is nothing more than a blatant play to put more business is Doug Ford's friends pockets. Moreover, it is a complete lack of leadership.

Education? Oh, wait, most of you lack formal education - you should read about it.

This is a joke.
Cycling is literally the fastest way to get around Toronto.
Quit wasting your time pretending you're the mayor of Toronto. Stay in your lane.
I don't know how it's hard for people to understand that bike lanes DON'T cause traffic.

Removing bike lanes seems like a colossal waste of tax payers money, and would be better served being used to either improve transit further, or encouraging taking cars off the road via other means.

This piece of legislation will do the opposite of the intentions it has. Cyclists, who are already extremely vulnerable on the road, will have less safe spaces to travel. Also, wouldn’t less cars reduce gridlock?

Adding more lanes for cars doesn't reduce traffic. This is immutable scientific fact.
Also, stop the 413! We know this bill is trying to push it forward.
