People cycling in a protected Toronto bike lane

Toronto’s protected bike lanes are being removed.

Save lanes.
Save lives.

The evidence is clear: removing them makes our streets less safe, costs millions, and will not solve gridlock.

Take action

This is not a fight about cycling.

Ontario is removing about 19 kilometres of protected bike lanes on six Toronto streets. The province’s own documents point to more collisions and little lasting congestion relief—while the city faces years of disruption to undo infrastructure that already works.

The facts don’t support removal.

54%

Less safe

Ontario’s own internal analysis estimates that removing protected lanes will increase collisions by more than 54% for all road users.

$48M+

Wasted public money

Toronto estimates more than $48 million to remove lanes that cost $27 million to build. That estimate covers only three of the six corridors.

90%

Good for neighbourhoods

A peer-reviewed Bloor study found no negative economic impact. Ninety per cent of customers arrived on foot, by bike, or by transit.
