1. The provincial government has jurisdiction over highways but not municipal roads. 2. Aiming for the removal of bike lanes that were recently constructed after conducting thorough studies and consultations is an utter waste of public energy and funds. Read more

I am little concerned that the government is spending a lot of time and resources in controlling, removing bike lanes. While 413 is not a bad idea, I’m really really impacted by the lack of speedy public transit across the toronto. Read more

Bikes need safe places to drive, aka bike lanes! Removing bike lanes won’t make bikers disappear, they will still need and want to bike around the city to work, on errands, to get places, etc - but removing bike lanes on busy streets makes it dangerous for bikers. Read more

I live in Toronto with my family, and I cycle to work every day to provide for them. I rely on the protected lanes on bloor and university to make sure I get to and from work safely. Read more

This decision alone has cemented my decision to NEVER support the Conservative Party again. The decision to waste tax payer dollars - by removing bike lanes that were just completed - using additional tax dollars to do so, is inept governance. Read more

Do not do this! The provincial government needs to keep its nose out of city policy. I live in the city. I have a car, I take the TTC, and I bike to work. We need as many modes of transport as we can get. Taking away the option to bike safely in the city adds to congestion. Read more

I was deeply saddened reading this proposal. I grew up in the Annex just north of Bloor, and have been cycling there my entire life. Recent developments like the Bloor bike lanes have made navigating the city so much faster and safer, and it floors me the province intends to remove them. Read more

This has to be the biggest colossal waste of resources even if it's just pure blatant political virtue signalling. Hypothetically wouldnt the province need this money for the big tunnel under the 401? What happened to that massive undertaking. Read more

This is ridiculous! We have a municipal government that was voted in to make these choices, and this is a tawdry, vote grabbing ‘policy’, that in all honesty, in 2024, should not be taken seriously. All data shows we need more transport links and urban centres need bike lanes, not less. Read more

This proposal is ludicrous and completely detached from the realities of traffic management. Decreasing lanes of traffic and providing safe opportunities for people to take transportation other than cars is proven to reduce the amount of traffic. Read more

I think that the removal of bike lanes and the taking away of planning abilities of municipalities is the wrong direction for the province. I think that if Doug Ford wants to get to Queens park a little faster, he can hop on a bike and use the bicycle infrastructure like the rest of us.

I find this bill incredibly disappointing and a massive misuse of tax dollars. As a car driver, from the city of Toronto, I fully support the bike lanes as they make it easier to get around while driving as all road users have clearly defined spaces. Read more
