We want to be able to get around Toronto quickly and safely. The bike lanes on Bloor, Yonge and University help us do that. We live a block away from the Bloor bike lanes. Depending on where we need to go we bike, take transit or drive. Read more

As a healthcare worker who regularly bikes to work on both Bloor Street and University Avenue, I would be very disappointed as well as concerned to see the removal of these lanes. There are a large number of fellow healthcare workers who I see daily biking to and from work. Read more

The province should not be reducing bike lanes, instead should encourage alternate modes of transport to reduce car usage. Increasing dedicated bike lanes is a core strategy to support environmental goals. Read more
