We could be a world class city, attracting business partners and investment. I think bike lanes and public transit support this opportunity. We need to be together and work together to create new opportunities. Cars are about individuals. They do not indicate team work. Read more

This legislation as tamped is of grave concern to me and any resident of Toronto who is concerned with making this city a better place to live and work. It strips cities of local authority and decision-making, even when projects are supported by evidence and local residents. Read more

I believe strongly that bike lanes and other interventions to encourage alternatives modes of transport over the car can reduce congestion and fight climate change. Read more

Unbelievable. Another distraction from Ford (what else you trying to hide now?) and coming after bike lanes AGAIN which not only transport thousands of people around the city and provide a mode of exercise and wellness. They also heavily relied on by people who use mobility devices. Read more

The bike lanes are how I navigate the city. They are currently needing improvements so as to allow safe passage from one end of the city to the other, and north and south. It is a family affair, a way to engage where a car can not. Read more

According to the government's own experts and consultants, Bill 60 will worsen congestion on our roads, it will make our roads more dangerous, and strips cities of local authority and decision-making. Read more

Doug Ford and gang, please give it a rest. Bill 212 and now this? Bike lanes do not cause traffic congestion. Repeating it again and again and again through these silly bills doesn't make it true. We need a more connected bike lane so people can have alternative modes of transportation. Read more

We need safe multimodal transportation including a complete transport system for bicyclists. Bicycling is a healthier transportation mode. Healthier, happier citizens build a better city than angry, impatient car drivers creating carbon emissions. Read more

Bill 60 would take power away from people and their communities and give it to cars. It strips cities of local authority and decision-making, even when projects are supported by evidence and local residents. Read more

As an about-to-become 80 year old living in the old city of Toronto I am still able to get around by using my e-assist bike. I am of course more careful of what routes I take, but that becomes harder when bicycle infrastructure is removed, refused or not connected. Read more

Bike lanes are a vital step toward carbon reduction and a government should consider adding more lanes to reduce congestion and improve health of its citizens. Taking away that decision from individual communities is a power grab and undermining democracy yet again. Shame!
