This Bill 212 needs to be enacted. Gridlock is killing the city and making living here impossible especially for disabled, elderly and others who need to drive and cannot use public transport or bike lanes. Save our Toronto!

Gridlock is caused by cars. Taking more cars off the road by better using our resources on improving and expanding public transit as well as expanding bike lanes will alleviate so much more traffic congestion. Please stop wasting our tax dollars.

To the Ford Government, In a city as large as Toronto, removing a few bike lanes on a few roads WILL NOT reduce traffic congestion. As most, it would open a few more lanes for motor vehicle traffic for a short time, only to be immediately backfilled by more motor vehicles. Read more

Extermly unhappy with this proposal. Bike lines save lives, improve the commute times of thousands of people in the city, and improve the health of the community. Read more

Bicycles may not be "motor" vehicles, but they are still vehicles, which entitles them to space on a road - just like cars. This bill is concerning because it distracts from and disrespects all other modes of transportation that are not cars - cycling, walking, and public transit. Read more

Hello, I have to strongly disagree with much of bill 212. I use the bike lanes to get to and from places in downtown Toronto as biking is often just the fastest way to get around downtown. Read more

Bike lanes do not increase traffic/congestion in the city. They are actually a very efficient and safe means of transit. We don’t need more vehicles in the city centre.

I strongly oppose Bill 212—it will not save anyone time, it will make gridlock worse, and it will be a huge waste of money. - Bike lanes are a part of the transportation infrastructure and reduce overall wait times. Read more

We need the bike lanes for bikes to safely operate on the streets and to motivate the populace to ride instead of single occupancy Vehicles clogging the streets and polluting our environment.
