I believe strongly that we need to INCREASE bike lanes and invest in public transportation. This bill, which will get rid of bike lanes and make them harder to implement, is an extremely temporary and shortsighted solution to our congestion and environmental issues. Read more

Studies keep showing that bike lanes DO NOT increase travel time. Biking is so efficient and keeps people from Ubering or taking a car to get to where they need to go. I bike to run all my errands, which stops me from ordering things on Amazon. Read more

We all want the bike lanes!!! Biking is sustainable, healthy, and should be encouraged rather than discouraged. If these bike lanes are removed, I won't feel safe biking anymore. Please keep the bike lanes.

I drive everyday to work. Bike lanes are not the reason for traffic. The city time and time again fails to coordinate construction on arteries across the city. It is incredibly frustrating that at times there is actually no good route. Read more

Traffic in Toronto is an urban planning issue that has nothing to do with the bike lanes. Removing bike lanes does not remove the cyclists. Without them, you will have cars and bikes together on the same narrow road, causing cars to move slower in and around the individuals cycling. Read more

If this bill passes, I'll seriously be looking to relocate my middle-class family out of this province. This government is simply uninterested in providing a safe province for hard-working, tax-paying families. Enough of the auto/road subsidies.

Stop taking us backwards. Fix public transit, fix signal priority for public transit. Enforce traffic laws. That’s how you make the cities move, not by ripping out bike lanes. Worry about our healthcare, crime rate in our province, bringing manufacturing to our province, increasing competition. Read more

I use the bike lanes and it gets me downtown quickly, and safer than when I interweave with traffic. Removing the bike lanes means I will be driving more. It's not simply going to add space to the roads, it's going to increase traffic on increased road space.

Please remove all bike lanes! The traffic in this city has become laughable. Not to mention the complete disregard of traffic regulations of the bikers in this city. I’ve witnessed so many near miss accidents caused directly by bikers swerving in and out of traffic and not staying in bike lanes.

I don't think the removal of bike lanes will help with congestion. Bike lanes should remain a municipal decision making item and municipalities should not need to consult with the province. It seems to be a waste of time and money to unnecessarily add the province into the decision making. Read more
