Yonge St. between Eglington and Bloor is an absolute disaster and needs urgent attention before a serious accident or incident ( or both ) occur.
Gridlocked more often than not, emergency vehicles have difficulty or cannot circulate at times at all.

The government should be focused on building more and safer bike lanes to encourage folks to bike instead of trying to hinder bike lanes from being built with inefficient and unhelpful Bills. Biking is good for the environment and it's good exercise.

This proposed legislation is both idiotic and anti-democratic in intent. Idiotic because the intended target - congestion - will only be reduced by the encouragement of public transit and non-car alternatives. This proposal goes in the opposite direction.

The proposed law is an egregious overreach by the provincial government into matters that should be decided on SOLELY by municipal governments.

The "Reducing Gridlock, Saving You Time Act, 2024" promises to tackle traffic congestion, but its misguided approach reveals a deep-seated preference for automobiles over sustainable transportation options.

I disagree with the proposal to require municipalities to seek provincial approval to build a new bike lane if it requires the removal of a vehicle lane and to require reporting on existing bike lanes on two main points.

Please do not remove any bike lanes that have previously been installed in Toronto.
Biking is much safer and traffic has not been adversely affected in the vast majority of places where the bike lanes have been installed.

Regarding the proposed amendments to Part XII: I am deeply concerned about the negative impact this
legislation would have on cyclist safety and sustainable transportation initiatives in our community and

The solution to gridlock is to reduce the number of cars on the road. Invest in public transit, reduce reliance on cars and get cars out of the city.

I support bicycle lanes in Toronto !!!!
They do not cause congestion !
Cars with only one person in them are the root cause of congestion .
Increasing the number of people in cars would decrease congestion.
4 persons or more in a car $0.00 toll.
3 persons in a car $5.00 toll

I am strongly opposed to the limitations to bicycle lanes proposed in Bill 212. Firstly, bike lanes do not cause congestion. Rather, they help reduce single occupancy vehicles on our roads, reducing congestion.

A l'heure où les questions de mobilités alternatives sont devenues primordiales, et où les gouvernements investissent massivement dans les transports en communs - train, bus, streecar, covoiturage, etc. Le vélo représente une composante complémentaire majeure pour désengorger le réseau routier.

This plan runs counter to helping with traffic congestion. Cycling commuters cut down on the amount of cars on the road and bike lanes encourage commuting by bicycle. The only way to cut down car traffic is to improve options that get people out of cars.

Please support alternative transportation modes. Traffic is turning more and more horrible. Bicycles are one way of getting cars of the roads. You have to build infrastructure and houses together.
This proposal blatantly disregards years of research that show bike lanes do not worsen gridlock. My environmental concerns are the following:

This legislation is counterintuitive as cycling lanes increase public health through creating safe active options for transit and have been proven to increase traffic to local shops, thereby building healthy people and a healthy economy.
A step backwards and nothing but a political play. We are in a climate crisis. Transportation that doesn't run on fossil fuels should be supported now more than ever, and this is a step in the wrong direction.
