Every day I think that this incompetent provincial government cannot make things worse, but you still surprise me. There is a website cycleto that has already gathered 16 thousand signatures with people who support bike lanes. Take your hands off from what cities are supposed to do.

This is not a province responsibility to dictate if bike lanes should be built within the city. You all that vote for this legislation rake money in and simply cannot fathom that bike lanes reduce traffic, make streets safer. This is a step backward.

This is a preposterous over reach by a provincial government into local affairs.
I use the Bloor West bike lanes all the time. It is nice to bike to the library or grocery store without risking my life in traffic.

I am opposed to this legislation.
Studies show that, depending upon area, somewhere between 5% & 20% of citizens regularly use bicycles for commuting, and somewhere around 70% use bicycles at all.

Bike lanes protect cyclists and have been proven to reduce congestion by encouraging more people to cycle instead of drive. I know personally I cycle for most errands and commuting but did not when there were not separated bike lanes to make it safe.

I oppose the proposal in so far as it would enable the province to remove bike lanes on Bloor, Yonge and University without further evidence that those lanes are slowing car traffic significantly.

Removing existing bike lanes is stupid, bikes are way more eco friendly than cars and also provide good exercise. More bikes means fewer drivers.

I whole heartedly support this proposal. I am for bike lanes that make sense. Emergency vehicles should not be hampered and small business should not have to suffer.

If you are going to get rid of bike lanes on bloor then you should get rid of the parking also so there is less traffic! This proposed legislation is the most nonsensical slap in the face. Focus on your tunnel under the 401 and the LRT projects you have failed to deliver. Bye ford.
If Ford wants to reduce gridlock he should encourage bike lane usage, e.g. e-bike subsidy, rather than removing bike lanes. Furthermore it should be up to each individual city to decide where bike lanes make sense rather than the province.

Hello,
I would like to highlight the bike lanes on Dundas St East in Regent Park, in Toronto, specifically between Parliament and Broadview. This stretch of road was once a two lane road in either direction. It is also a streetcar route.

As a cyclist, who has children I do not support the removal of bike lanes and I find the province is overstepping trying to say where bike lanes can be. It will cause so much bureaucratic hassle.
This is completely outrageous and backwards.
The bike lanes the province is seeking to remove with no consultation or study have been tremendous improvements to the City. They are well used and important.
