Ontario would be one of the only cities on earth who removes bike lanes. It’s an insane step backwards for a city that very badly needs to move forward.

I am both a cyclist, use public transport and also drive a car. Although there may be cases that require a readdressing of bike lanes, however this needs to be a city and municipality responsibility and decision .

Please don't remove the bike lanes on Bloor-Young. Those are essential for getting around, and we don't need more roads in Toronto. It'll be bad for everyone all around.
I am stunned at this proposal to remove bike lanes and create barriers to future bike lanes. Did the Ford gvt not learn anything with the Greenbelt fiasco? Bike lanes are vital to the health of people and the planet.

As a homeowner, taxpayer, and citizen of the City of Toronto, I rely on walking, biking, driving, and public transit to navigate our city. I am strongly opposed to Bill 212, which purports to address congestion on Ontario’s municipal roads.

I am a Toronto-based motorist, but I strongly believe that Toronto should have the authority to plan their own bike lane network without interference from the province.

I feel the bike lanes the cith of Toronto put in are absolutely wonderful and am begging you not to take them away. Finally I felt safe enough to ride a bike in the city. That coupled with the Bike Ride Share make me very happy.

Bill 212 is an egregious overreach of this provincial government, demonstrates the government's lack of understanding of public infrastructure, and is far from what a "common sense" approach actually looks like.

You reduce traffic by taking cars off the road. Bike lanes and public transit do that. Please look at the data! It would be folly to spend that much money undoing what the city just put in. The bike lanes make it safer for cyclists, pedestrians and drivers.

I am a physician who cycles to work and to do home visits for her patients on a daily basis. We need more bike lanes, not fewer. Please do not create legislation that prevents cities from creating much needed bike lanes.

I am extremely upset about the proposals to remove bike lanes. I rely on biking as my main mode of transportation in the city, and bike daily to do errands, grocery shop, go to farmer's markets, shop downtown, Kensington, Bloor, St. Lawrence Market, Canadian Tire, Eaton Centre, or salon, spa, dr.

Removing bike lanes is a huge step backwards.
I use bike lanes in Toronto daily, and I prefer it to using a vehicle or TTC.
For the environment, for people’s health, for safety of those who don’t use motorized vehicles, it is so important to have bike lanes.

As a continually growing metropolis and major contributor to emissions there is no question Toronto and all of Ontario should be EXPANDING bike lanes, not removing them.
The time has come to be a leading city in making wiser climate and green energy choices for the future.

I am a Toronto resident and taxpayer. For 50 years I have used a bicycle in this city as my main side of transport for work, shopping and recreation . Bike lanes allow me to do this safely and efficiently. Ripping them out or preventing the expansion of Toronto's bicycle network puts me at risk.
