I am very concerned about bill 60. This bill threatens everything that is important to me and those around me, safe transit, cycling and pedestrian infrastructure. Municipalities should furthermore have the jurisdiction to decide what they do with their own roadways.

Please recognize that bike lanes are an important part of infrastructure. Not only do they provide safety for bikers, but they discourage cars from driving over the speed limit. I both ride a bicycle and drive a car. It’s not incompatible to respect the needs and rights of both groups.
I oppose this proposal because it's hindering the development of a well-connected bike lane system. If planning proves the merits of changing how we use a road, then it is arbitrary to simply forbid any reductions of motor vehicle lanes as a one-size-fits-all policy.

Hello, I am a resident of Ontario, and I am unhappy with this bill for several reasons. First, the bill is inconsistent with its environmental implications. The bill claims that moving people faster by keeping lanes will help with air pollution.

Bill 60 represents a dangerous step backward for Ontario’s transportation future. By prohibiting municipalities from reallocating car lanes for bike lanes or dedicated transit corridors, this legislation undermines decades of progress toward safer, greener, and more efficient mobility.

DO NOT PASS BILL 60.
It presents a huge barrier to the implementation of safe infrastructure. The removal or reconfiguration of traditional lanes of traffic are often how we create new bike lanes and safely/efficiently get people on bikes around our cities and towns.

This bill is another blatant and disingenuous provincial overreach over municipal infrastructure. Municipal streets should be of no business to the province and this bill is an attempt to dismiss public debate over local city building to move people more efficiently, NOT CARS.

Please don't allow this regressive nonsense. Bike lanes are clearly the future and I'm tired of everyone else making progress while nonsense like this tried to bolt our feet the ground. I can't state strongly enough how much I DO NOT support this bill.
I pay a lot of taxes for the community that we have built in downtown Toronto. Our community includes bike lanes because that is what we want and what we paid for. Non residents have no right to tell us how to live.

Please do not do bill 60 it threatens lives and acutalley slows traffic according to many studies.
You don't want blood on your hands do you?

This is against the evidence collected by experts, sets the city on a regressive course, and endangers lives. Do not put us back on this dangerous path.
I am a lifelong Toronto resident and commuter cyclist. I cycle daily to work, to social gatherings, and to run errands like groceries. My livelihood and wellbeing, in no exaggeration, functions entirely on my ability to cycle safely within the cycling infrastructure that exists in the city.

If traffic congestion is a major source of pollution, then yes, we should reduce it. But I believe the way to do it is by encouraging people to use alternate modes of transportation, including riding a bike. People are more likely to do that when the city has good biking infrastructure.

I am surprised to see this bill after the judiciary ruled against similar regulation in bill 212. But one of the aspects I find particularly bad, meaning bad legislation, is that it assumes our roads are good as is. In fact, many roads are in neighborhoods which have changed.

As a professional engineer reading this proposal, I cannot see any technical reason why the proposal would achieve it's aim of reducing delays. From my own research there is nothing to suggest that bike lanes have caused delays in cities in Ontario.

This bill is just more red tape. I'd say move bikes in with the rest of the things you're including in the regulation but that would just make Bill 60 even more vague and burdensome. Do away with the whole thing (Bill 60) or come up with a sensible reason for this law in the first place.
