I am deeply opposed to the proposed legislation requiring the removal of the Bloor, Yonge, and University bike lanes in Toronto. I use these lanes daily. They provide a reliable, efficient, and environmentally friendly method to support local businesses. Read more

This is a complete waste of money and isn't based in reality. There have been multiple studies (conducted by the city) that have shown that bike lanes reduce traffic Read more

This is provincial overreach plain and simple. Let the city of Toronto and its elected officials deal with what’s best for us and our individual streets. Read more

As someone who landed in one of Toronto's trauma units following a bike crash whose cause can be directly tied to the implementation of the Bloor St bike lanes, one might think I would be opposed to bike lanes. The opposite is true. I am strongly in favour of bike lanes. Read more

Please stop this utter nonsense targeting bike lanes! I have family in small Ontario towns that can’t get access to health and yet Doug Ford is choosing to spend all of his time and energy on this?! There is more to the province than Toronto! Pay attention to the rest of us!! Read more

I bike and use public transit to commute to work and get around the city. Our family also has a car. I do not support this legislation. First, I disagree because this legislation sets Ontario and Toronto on the wrong track. Read more

This is a terrible use of taxpayer money , the data even finds that bike lanes reduce congestion . I use the bike lanes in question all the time to get to work and they are fantastic ! Digging up perfectly good bike lanes especially the university and bloor lanes is a step back for our city !

This is not the solution to making the roads less congested. Study some of the bike friendly cities around the world. We need better alternatives to having a single occupant driving in a car taking up all that space, congesting the road and polluting the environment. Read more

I live in Oshawa I love going to the city(Toronto). I often drive because I have a big family and I like the freedom of doing multiple things when I'm in the city. Bike lanes make me feel safer. It protects the bikers and it protects us in cars. Read more

Why are we spending money on something that we know not only won't solve traffic but make it worst? This is absolutely unacceptable. The only way to provide better traffic flow is to give VIABLE alternative to driving! Read more

Bike lanes are a critical part of Toronto’s infrastructure and an important part of reducing traffic throughout the city. As both a driver and a cyclist we should be building more bike lanes not reducing them. We should also continue to improve public transit. Read more

I am writing to express my profound disappointment and vehement opposition to the proposed removal of Toronto's bike lanes, an unnecessary and misguided intervention into city planning that undermines our community’s safety and prosperity. Read more

This is government overreach at its worst. The City of Toronto has made decisions in its best interests, in consultations with local residents, businesses and others. Read more

Bike lanes in Toronto do an important job of giving people an alternative safe way to travel around the city. Ripping out existing bike lanes and restricting future bike lanes to non-arterial roads will only make it harder for people to choose bikes as a model of transportation. Read more
