One of the knuckleheads here!  What we are fighting is the reduction in vehicle lanes on a major arterial route that is having a very negative impact on local residents and commuters (99.5% of all road users).   In Burlington, this is NOT a transportation issue  but the local Cycling Lobby has dishonestly framed it as such--it is driven by the hard-core hobbyists, the Lycra Louts.  What you failed to mention is that we have room on the adjacent wide boulevard to create a separate cycling path.  Hopefully democracy prevails here--not that sham on Bloor St.
