Are you out of your mind? How does a bike lane cause traffic when it lets people ride a bike instead of driving a car around. The space requirements are entirely different. The traffic congestion caused from removing those lanes alone would be more than they ever caused. Read more

Bike lanes should not be removed for the benefit of car commuters to solve "gridlock" when the vast majority of car traffic happens due to the sheer space each car takes up and the amount of people who choose to commute by car. Read more

There is absolutely no logic to removing already constructed bike lanes. Where is the data supporting these decisions? Why is this government continuing to waste resources and public funds on baseless policies that would just make traffic worse? Read more

I use the bike lines every single day on my commute to work. Biking is the fastest and most sustainable way around the city - it should be preserved and encouraged rather than punished. Biking in the road is dangerous. Drivers are reluctant to share the road and are aggressive. Read more

To remove the bike lanes is a huge waste of taxpayer money. I am a tax paying Canadian citizen. I take the subway everyday for work and school, and also own a car and drive when needed. Despite this, I fully support the ongoing and continuing development and expansion of bike lanes. Read more

Bike lanes are good They reduce the danger to cyclists, by limiting collisions and the seriousness of them. They increase the the proportion of people who cycle instead of driving; reducing congestion, improving health, improving air quality. Read more

This bill is an incredible mis-step, error, worsening of the province, and incredible waste of money. Bike lanes are essential for the present and future. They provide a more equitable way for people to get around without taking up the space and cost of cars. Read more

This is a terrible idea! This plan only supports those with enough money that can afford to buy a car. The cost of entry to personal mobility of a bike is factors lower than the car. Read more

Absolute garbage. Ontario should not be deciding for Toronto what we want with our streets. Removing bike lanes puts cyclist on the road and endangers their lives. More cyclist will die as a result of these decisions. Stop this stupid bill.

I strongly disapprove of the removal of the bike lanes. Creating a variety of quality modes of transportation is key to Toronto’s growth. The bikes lanes Toronto have added in recent years are a good step in that direction. Read more

The provincial government should not get involved in city business and add unnecessary red tape to building more bike lanes. As a university student living in toronto I need these bike lanes I cant afford a car. Read more

We need more bike lanes, transit, and non-car dependent mode of transportation, not more red tape, bureaucracy, and government inaction. We need a framework that makes it easier to build, not harder. This bill is absolutely going the wrong direction.

The most effective way of reducing gridlock is to give people more choices for how to get around. Removing bike lanes does the opposite. Adding more car lanes may reduce travel times in the short term only. Read more
