This bill is outrageous, and is the exact opposite of what we should be doing with our tax dollars. Adding more red tape and bureaucracy instead of letting local government, and people, decide what is best for them. Read more

This is silly - bike lanes are an important part of our overall transit infrastructure and need to be a NETWORK in order to enable throughput. If MORE bike lanes were divided from traffic I would be much more willing to cycle in Toronto. Read more

This bill is an absurd waste of taxpayer funds. There is no benefit to the province in whole or in part by forcing the removal of bike lanes. This is, at best, cartoon villain nonsense disguised as remedy. Read more

This is ridiculous, adding red tape and bureaucracy in the face of progress. More choice in our modes of transportation is never a bad thing. Passing this would be an absolute shame and disgrace. Has anyone even considered the safety of cyclists? Read more

We should be moving towards a society that has more cyclists than drivers. I think about the young adults that can't afford cars and have to travel using their bikes to their friends' house or their part-time job. We should be making it easier to make bike lanes, not more difficult. Read more

Bill 212 is the opposite of what will work for Toronto in the future. We know the population of the GTA is exploding, and so is the downtown core. If we want to reduce traffic, we need to develop reliable alternatives for transportation. Read more

Please keep bike lanes. They reduce gridlock because so many people use them. Not only that, businesses rely on bike couriers and deliveries. This is an efficient way to move the economy around in the city. Lastly, it keeps bike riders safe! Read more

From the bottom of my heart, with no intents of sarcasm, y'all should try cycling! There are studies that show one could replace half of their car trips with bikes. Read more

Thank you for the opportunity to comment. I will be brief. For many reasons I do not support Bill 212. I would like to see more bike lanes in Toronto, not fewer. As well, I do not think the province should be able to dictate to Toronto what it thinks is best for the city. Read more

Let’s remove these bicycle lanes ASAP. I am sure that the city transportation staff are working with all the bicycle groups to get people to ride these lanes just like the city transportation staff listened to the cyclists and ignored the comments from the residents. Read more

Stay out of municipal affairs. Leave the bike lanes alone. If you do destroy the bike lanes, pay toronto back for the lanes the city paid for that you’re destroying. Also pay toronto for all those lanes you say we can get on side streets.

This is an incredibly ignorant and out of touch concept. The bike lanes that currently exist have created a safe, affordable and environmentally-conscious commute option for people who actually live within the city of Toronto. Read more

As a Toronto resident, I am deeply frustrated and disappointed by the Ontario government's proposal to not only remove specific bike lanes from key arterial roads in Toronto, but to legislate provincial authority over municipal city planning. Read more
