WARD 10, Spadina-Fort York
1/6
Hello
Welcome
I believe that that Community is essential for human well-being. A strong community fosters resilience in challenging times and provides us with a sense of belonging and support. There are specific ways that we can build a stronger Community as Toronto continues to grow and diversify. Together we can do this!
About ward 10 and ME
Ward 10, Spadina-Fort York
Whether you’re a long-time resident of Ward 10, like me, whose roots run deep in our community, or you've just recently arrived in this incredible part of downtown Toronto, I am thrilled to connect with you. My name is Paul Nash, and I’m your 2026 Ward 10 candidate for City Council, Spadina - Fort York.
Our ward is the economic, cultural, and creative heart of Toronto. Geographically, we encompass some of the most dynamic and rapidly transforming neighborhoods in the entire country. We have the historic brick-and-beam architecture and creative energy of King West and Liberty Village. We have the bustling streets of Chinatown. And we have the vertical communities of CityPlace, and the heritage grounds of Old Fort York. Our Ward is diverse, vibrant, and entirely unique. We’re a true microcosm of the future of urban living.
But as our community grows at an unprecedented rate, so do the complex challenges we face every day. The infrastructure that supports us is feeling the strain of this rapid expansion. We see it and feel it firsthand—on the crowded sidewalks where pedestrians spill onto the roads, the packed streetcars we watch pass us by in the rain, in the soaring, often unreachable cost of housing, and in the heavy wear and tear on our beautiful parks.
Preserving our Waterfront
- I’m committed to preserving our vibrant waterfront. I’ll work to block any proposal to expand the Island Airport to accommodate commercial jets.
- My priority will be the economic, social and environmental needs of Ward 10’s residents and businesses.
Respecting our Neighborhoods
- I’ll work with developers to ensure they respect our neighborhoods and make a positive contribution.
- I’ll see that developers provide for appropriate new uses and activities, traffic, parking and servicing impacts.
This is My Promise to Ward 10:
- I’ll always be there for you.
- I’ll always be willing to listen and ready to act.
- I'll build our relationship on trust, transparency, regular consultation and ongoing dialogue.
- I’ll never put the interests of one group ahead of another or the common good.
the key issues
Here are answers to some of the questions I'm frequently asked:
Frequently Asked Questions on the key issues
Please reach out to me at nashp1071@gmail.com if you can't find an answer to your question here.
I was born and raised in Toronto. My mother and her family immigrated to Toronto from Ireland in the 1950s, and my father's grandparents came to Toronto from England in the 1890s. I grew up in the Beaches area of Toronto and completed my B.A. and M.A. degrees at the University of Toronto. I earned my PhD degree in the U.K., where I taught for several years. I have lived with my wife in Ward 10 close to Toronto's Waterfront and the heritage grounds of Old Fort York for over 26 years.
I believe that together we can make Spadina-Fort York a better place to live by building a stronger sense of Community. That means we have to better address our city's most pressing issues together. These include affordable housing, public safety, public transit, safe roads, schools, youth violence, and local business vitality.
To me, community is more than just a word describing a group of people living together in one area. To me, community means having shared values, tolerance, respect, and a common desire to move forward together toward a better future. Above all, it means a shared desire to help each other, which fosters a sense of belonging and well-being .
It takes financial experience to effectively oversee a large municipal budget. I have more than 13 years of experience as a financial analyst with a top investment firm on Bay Street, assessing the performance of billions of dollars of investment. I was later a financial journalist. I understand the importance of financial discipline in optimizing taxpayer dollars to ensure long-term economic stability and to promote lower costs. By voting for me, you're voting for for financial performance and accountability.
By voting for me, you're sending a clear message to City Hall that you don't want to see your property taxes keep rising. I'll ensure that our tax dollars go farther by improving government efficiency, maximizing revenue, and shifting our focus more towards long-term investment rather than short-term spending.
Chinatown is one of Toronto's treasures. With a rich history, it's emblematic of our city's cultural diversity. I'll safeguard the area’s heritage and work to revitalize it, making it once again one of North America's largest and most vibrant tourist attractions offering an immersive cultural experience, bustling markets and authentic dining. To accomplish this, I’ll create a more pedestrian-friendly environment with wider sidewalks, benches, improved lighting, planters, and public art. I’ll look at financial incentives such as grants and tax breaks that could help to fill vacant storefronts with unique, local businesses. I’ll also accelerate the approval process for renovations and new business openings to reduce costs and cut red tape for developers in the area. I'll ensure that the City of Toronto quickly investigates and addresses complaints received from renters in the area. And I'll see that landlords comply with their responsibilities to tenants.
By voting for me, you're voting to revitalize Chinatown.
Transit fares keep rising, while service keeps declining. Service hasn’t even recovered from the pandemic years, and yet TTC fares are now at historic all-time highs. Reported assaults on Toronto-area transit have risen by 160 per cent since 2015. Building new, expensive lines to accommodate a new luxury condo on the eastern waterfront or a Taylor Swift concert 5 years ago isn’t the answer. We need fares that people can afford. We need a transit system that operates on a regular schedule. We need a stronger security presence on our public transit to help restore safety.
By voting for me, you're voting to make Toronto’s public transit run safely on route, on time, and at a fair price.
Since 2023, Toronto has seen an alarming rise in hate crimes, particularly against Jewish, black and 2SLGBTQI+ communities. Last year, there were 12,000 carjackings in the city. That’s 34 a day, or one every 40 minutes. It's outrageous! And it's happening as corruption scandals are eroding public trust in our police. Clearly, we have a serious problem with law and order in this city that demands immediate action.
I'm a former volunteer director and crew member of a Canadian Coast Guard Auxiliary Search and Rescue Unit operating in the Toronto Harbour, working alongside the Toronto Police and Fire Marine Units. As such, I share a deep commitment to public safety. I'm a strong supporter of First Responders, including the police, and the critical services they provide to our community.
I'll work collaboratively across sectors, communities and governments to bring about a safe Toronto that promotes and celebrates the well-being and resilience of ALL residents. I'll also expand low-cost municipal mental health crisis services that promote healing and recovery, including more mobile crisis teams and telephone hotlines.
By voting for me, you're voting to make our community safer.
I’ll pursue evidence-based strategies to reduce crime. Strategies that work because they're backed by empirical data, rather than mere short-term political posturing aimed at appearing tough on crime.
For example, rather than mindlessly closing down overdose prevention sites (OPS), as the provincial government has done, simply to appear tough on illicit drug use, I’ll look at ways to better integrate supervised consumption sites into those communities where they are needed most because rigorous research shows that they do reduce crime. Evidence from robust studies tells us what our frontline harm-reduction professionals and police officers have long witnessed: that such sites do positively impact those areas where they are needed, resulting in a decline over time in most crimes, including bicycle thefts, assaults, break-and-enters, robberies and thefts from motor vehicles. Closing down such sites has only increased crime and visible drug use across our community. Do we really want our children getting on streetcars and buses in our community and having to see people shooting up in the back seats? Instead of dismantling overdose prevention sites for short-term political optics, our priority should be the thoughtful integration of these essential services into vulnerable neighborhoods.
If we're going to reduce crime, let’s get to work pursuing evidence-based strategies that actually do reduce crime.
By voting for me, you're voting to implement crime-reduction strategies backed by empirical data. Strategies that work.
I’ll advocate for stronger climate policies, improved public transit service and greener building standards that integrate sustainable design and green practices. I’ll also advocate for more investment in climate-resilient infrastructure to help protect communities and keep residents safe from floods and other weather events.
I’ll support more tree planting and neighbourhood climate adaptation programs. I'll also support the creation of more environmental education centres focused on nature, culture and community.
By voting for me, you're voting for a greener city for all.
Committed to diversity
I value equity, diversity and inclusion because every person has a right to equal treatment. We, as a community, are strengthened by diverse backgrounds, perspectives and experiences.
I believe in fostering a culture that embraces the uniqueness of individuals, and one that is representative of the city’s vibrant ethnic, racial and cultural diversity.
“Paul Nash talks affectionately of his Pakistani neighbors. He revels in learning Urdu from his friends and through videos on YouTube. Practicing his Urdu, Dr. Nash says ‘Allah Hafiz’ and waves with a smiling face as his friend boards the train in Toronto."
- C. Naseer Ahmad, ‘Allah Hafiz in Toronto,’ in Pakistan Community Link, August 2018
Committed to human rights
I’m committed to ensuring that all City of Toronto employees, volunteers, Accountability Officers and their staff, elected officials and their staff, the Toronto Police Service (TPS), and all organizations operating in Toronto strictly abide by the Ontario Human Rights Code. I’ll also make certain they fully respect the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. Full compliance will ensure equal treatment and a harassment-free environment for all individuals living, visiting or conducting business in our City.
Committed to accessibility
I’ll also ensure that our City provides a barrier-free environment for all residents of, and visitors to Toronto. I believe that the City of Toronto and all organizations operating in our City must respect and uphold the requirements set forth under the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act (2005), and its associated standards and regulations.
Committed to life
I believe that every human life has inherent dignity and worth, and that every life matters, regardless of gender, disability, sexual orientation, race or ethnic background. I’ll advocate for the legal protection of every human being, from conception to natural death.
Committed to privacy and the rule of law
I’ll also ensure that all corporations and organizations operating in Toronto, both big and small, rigorously comply with all Canadian privacy laws.
By voting for me, you're endorsing diversity and the rule of law in our city.
As a long-time youth mentor, I understand that today's young people are the key to our community's future. I'll invest in youth violence prevention programs and other programs that support young people in meaningful ways. I'll also create more free mentorship and recreation opportunities for young people. By voting for me, you're voting for a long-term investment in the future of our community's youth.
“Toronto traffic fatalities have increased 44 per cent since 2024.”
- Toronto Life
I'll improve road safety
Traffic-related fatalities and serious injuries continue to rise on Toronto’s streets. I'll reduce the speed limits on high-risk residential streets. I'll also prioritize the safety of our most vulnerable road users by increasing the number of community and senior safety zones with altered cross-walk signal timing to make crossing the street safer in these areas.
Most importantly, I'll make sure traffic laws are properly enforced.

"It’s the Wild West out there: the drive this morning continues to be an absolute mess.”

“Multiple road closures to make for a weekend of nightmare traffic in Toronto.”
- blog TO
I'll reduce traffic congestion.
The City of Toronto's road network was designed for the 1970s. Today, ongoing roadwork and more people on the road mean we face bumper-to-bumper traffic every day.
Toronto’s traffic congestion is now the second highest in Canada, next to Vancouver, and one of the highest on the continent. It's worse than both New York and Mexico Cities. In recent years, Toronto has even ranked third on a list of the most congested cities in the world. And it’s only getting worse. Traffic congestion is estimated to cost the city billions of dollars annually in social and economic costs.
We lose hours of valuable time every day slowed down or stuck in traffic. It’s become a drag on our quality of life and our economy. International companies are choosing to downsize their Toronto footprint or relocate to less-congested cities.
Public transit is supposed to be a viable alternative to driving, but it isn’t because it’s become just too expensive and too unreliable. Also, better fare and service integration is needed to encourage more people to choose public transit.
I'll advocate for targeted transportation infrastructure investments, improved public transit, and effective and innovative congestion management strategies to mitigate both the economic and social impacts of congestion.
I'll find ways to reduce the need for road and lane closures that affect everyone traveling on our roads. And I'll ensure the proper scheduling and timely notification of road and lane closures for critical repairs and maintenance work on our busiest roads and highways. And I'll optimize major thoroughfares to help speed movement across the city.
By voting for me, you're voting to make our roads safer and more efficient.
Located on the Toronto Islands, Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport has a unique governance structure. The airport is owned and operated by the Toronto Port Authority, a Canada Port Authority. The land on which the airport operates is owned by the Toronto Port Authority (78.5% of the land), the City of Toronto (20%) and Transport Canada (1.5%). The ownership structure and the airport operations are governed by a Tripartite Agreement signed in 1983 between the three landowners.
In March 2026, Ontario's Premier publicly stated support for expanding Billy Bishop Airport to allow jets. The Toronto Port Authority said it supports that direction, subject to changes in the governing agreement. The provincial government later tabled a bill to take control of a portion of the airport from the City and gain expropriation powers over large areas of the island and waterfront to facilitate the airport's expansion. It has also indicated that it plans to use new powers to designate the area a Special Economic Zone, empowering the Province to exempt the project from various municipal approvals. These announcements have been made only by way of press conferences and media interviews. The City has not yet formally received any specific plans or details regarding the proposed expansion.
In June 2026, the federal Government of Canada, through Transport Canada, opened up public consultations on the Airport's future. From June 8 to July 24, 2026, the Federal Government is seeking feedback on key priorities, such as noise mitigation, environmental measures and community infrastructure (e.g., parks and housing). Transport Canada will publish a report summarizing what it hears from the public.
A new Report from the City’s Chief Planner, however, already warns that any expansion of Billy Bishop Airport could negatively affect neighborhood livability, causing more air pollution, noise, traffic congestion, and broader waterfront planning conflicts.
I'll establish a new standard for community-controlled development that puts our community first. I'll ensure local residents and businesses have a strong voice in expansion and redevelopment proposals.
Do we really want to give up our beloved waterfront parks to build infrastructure that would allow massive jets to fly in and out, despite serious concerns over noise, health and environmental impacts? Increased fuel emissions and toxins pose a direct threat to the fragile ecosystem of Lake Ontario and the surrounding parklands.
In June 2024, University of Toronto researchers released the final Report of an Air Quality Study they conducted in conjunction with the Bathurst Quay Neighborhood Association (BQNA). This study showed the relationship between highway traffic and airport activity on the Ward 10 Bathurst Quay waterfront neighborhood. One of the key findings of the Study was that Billy Bishop Airport is a major source of hazardous ultrafine particles (UFP) in the neighborhood. Such particles are known to contribute to severe cardiovascular, respiratory and neurological diseases.
In addition to degrading the local air and water quality, expanding the Airport could also lead to the increased risk of air traffic-related injuries and fatalities. It will certainly worsen downtown traffic gridlock and transit congestion.
The potential economic benefits of expanding the Airport are likely overblown. Taxpayers are already paying billions to expand Pearson Airport, so why do we have to pay billions more to expand the island airport? Doing so will only undermine the multi-billion-dollar investment already made by the City, Province and Federal Government to revitalize the waterfront, massively wasting taxpayer money. In May 2026, the Toronto Port Authority CEO indicated that the cost of the expansion would be around $4 to $5 billion.
By voting for me, you're voting to protect our revitalized waterfront neighborhood as a place to live, work and play.
Declining population growth and challenging economic conditions mean that many Toronto-area rental units are sitting empty. While a high vacancy rate is good for renters, creating more choice and flexibility, rents across the city are still sky high. I'll work to create a more affordable and stable rental housing market in our community that benefits both tenants and landlords alike.
I'm committed to protecting renters from unreasonable rent increases or evictions. I'm also committed to ensuring that our city's Apartment Building Standards bylaws are properly enforced. I'll make sure that building owners and operators comply with maintenance standards.
By voting for me, you're voting for a more affordable and resilient rental housing market.
From Liberty Village to Chinatown and Harbourfront, unique local stores and restaurants give our neighbourhoods their charm and character. They also help to hold our community together. As such, I'm committed to supporting local businesses by simplifying regulations and fostering investment in local business areas. I'll introduce programs to help small businesses navigate permitting, licensing, zoning, and development processes. I'm also committed to attracting tourism investment and improving coordination with municipal partners on shared economic development priorities.
By voting for me, you're voting to support local businesses.
The current crisis in Toronto’s schools demands strong leadership. As a former educator, I can be counted on to address the chronic under-funding that has led to overcrowded classrooms, rising youth violence and the ongoing struggle to recruit and retain education workers.
Ongoing provincial cuts to education will have detrimental effects on students. They threaten essential programs like:
- Outdoor education sites.
- Community engagement for families.
- Staff for student crisis intervention & behaviour support.
- Library and equity programs.
I'll put resources back into the classroom. I'll be a steadfast advocate for the conditions and supports that students, teachers, and education workers desperately need. I'm committed to calling on the municipal and provincial governments to make the essential investments required to protect and improve our public education system. Children and adolescents should not have to "pay to play." I believe it's important for our children and adolescents learn the right habits from from educators who truly care and are valued for the work they do.
By voting for me, you're voting for stronger support for our schools.
Far too many people in Toronto are struggling to find affordable housing. But affordable housing doesn't have to be out of reach. It can be a reality.
Housing affordability is shaped by several factors: not only by housing costs and family income levels, but also by housing availability.
I’ll speed up the approvals process for constructing more mid-rise buildings and purpose-built rental homes for mixed incomes, and multiplexes. I'll speed up the construction of affordable and community housing for low-income households. And I'll encourage partnerships with private market developers to build affordable homes for middle-income households.
I'll also expand and accelerate partnerships with the provincial and federal governments to increase affordable housing development.
By voting for me, you're voting for more affordable housing.
With rising economic uncertainty and high inflation, too many of us are having trouble making ends meet. Everything seems more expensive than ever. We’re often struggling to meet everyday expenses such as groceries and gas, and we’re able to put less into savings each month. Wage increases just aren’t high enough to match the increased cost of living. It's becoming an uphill battle to stay on top of the bills.
The Bank of Canada, in a recent Financial Stability Report, has warned that rising mortgage payments could create financial strain over the next year. This is when five‑year, fixed‑payment mortgages, taken out during the pandemic at very low interest rates, will renew at higher rates. This may cause some households in the Toronto area, especially “highly indebted households,” to struggle with the rising cost of living, as inflation and other economic factors drive up the price of food, fuel and other essentials.
I’ll advocate for new affordability measures in the municipal spending plan that deliver results.
I’ll advocate to freeze property tax increases. Torontonians have seen their property taxes increase by a staggering 56% over the past decade. That's about two times the rate of inflation over the same period. It makes life less affordable for us all.
I‘ll work hard to ensure that City Hall doesn't increase property taxes above the annual rate of inflation. We can do this by making renewed and smart efforts to cut government spending and root out waste. I believe we can find new savings and efficiencies in our municipal budget by eliminating administration duplication and freezing non-essential hiring.
By voting for me, you're voting to ensure that City Hall works tirelessly to reduce spending and increase efficiency.
A Plan for Police funding reform and Prosperity
The Fiscal Crisis: The Hidden “Policing Tax”
Toronto is currently trapped in an unsustainable fiscal model that treats local property taxpayers as limitless ATM machines for services that are actually provincial in scale. For the 2025 taxation year, the City anticipates generating approximately $6.06 billion in municipal property tax funding. However, we’re paying roughly $2 billion annually for the Toronto Police Service (TPS) when you include operating budgets, specialized units, pensions, benefits, and the massive capital costs of maintaining aging facilities and a specialized fleet of vehicles.
- The Household Burden: For a typical family of four living in a condo in Ward 10, this translates into a $2,664 annual burden. In Toronto's current cost-of-living crisis, that’s a heavy, “choice-killing” tax. Imagine what that money—or at least a portion of it—could mean if left in your pockets: it covers nearly five months of premium groceries, an entire year of TTC passes for two students, or the total cost of quality extracurricular activities for a child. Instead, this money is being grabbed from you to pay for a service that is increasingly tasked with managing provincial and global crowds rather than working on improving local neighborhood safety.
- The Inter-generational Debt: Approximately 471,615 residents in Toronto are under the age of 18. These children, who have no income and no vote, are effectively carrying $314 million of the annual policing debt. That's more than a fiscal error; it’s a moral mistake. We’re actually taxing the future of our youth to pay for the security of a tourism industry that provides them with nothing in return, allowing our community centers, libraries, and youth programs to crumble under the weight of constant “budget shortfalls” and “reduced hours.”
Policing for 31 Million people, Paid for by 3 Million
The legal and moral justification for uploading policing to the Province lies in the massive “Service Mismatch” caused by Toronto's status as the economic heart of Canada.
- Record-Breaking Volume: In 2025, Toronto welcomed a record 28.2 million visitors. Of these, 25 million were domestic visitors from other parts of Canada. Most (93.5%) were from Ontario. These were our neighbors from Oakville, London, and Ottawa, who use our roads, our sewers, and our police services every weekend.
- The Provincial Gems: Approximately 17.5% of all Ontario visitors to the GTA come to see the 'Provincial Gems' located in Ward 10: the Rogers Centre, the CN Tower, the Scotiabank Arena, the Royal Ontario Museum, and Exhibition Place. When 50,000 people flood into Toronto’s core for a Taylor Swift concert, a Leafs’ playoff game, or a FIFA World Cup match, the policing bill—including massive overtime and specialized crowd control—is handed to the local resident in Ward 10.
- The Fiscal Leakage: While these visitors pour billions into the provincial and federal coffers via the Harmonized Sales Tax (HST) and provincial income taxes, 90% of the people benefiting from Toronto's safety infrastructure contribute zero to the municipal property taxes in Ward 10, which fund the TPS. Policing these millions of visitors ought to be a provincial service, but it’s being paid for by you—the residents of Spadina—Fort York. It just isn’t fair. We must also benefit.
The “Ford Precedent:” Control for Capital
The Provincial government already treats Toronto like it’s owned by Queen’s Park. My proposal simply demands that the taxes we pay entitle us to an equal say in decisions made at Queen’s Park.
- The 2018 Ward Reduction: By unilaterally slashing the number of city wards from 47 to 25 mid-election, the Provincial government proved they think Toronto’s democratic structure is their own to reshape at their will, and to their own benefit.
- The logic is simple: If the Province wants to control how we are represented, they must pay for how we are protected. If they demand the power to shrink our local voice to 25 Councillors for 3 million people, they must assume the cost of our most expensive local service—the TPS.
- The Infrastructure Precedent: The Province has already recognized this logic by taking over the Gardiner Expressway and the Don Valley Parkway. They have also moved to take full control of Ontario Place and the Billy Bishop Airport lands through the Rebuilding Ontario Place Act, designating them as zones of “provincial significance.”
- The “New Deal” Trade: I’m offering a clear, strategic trade. Let the Province have the command and control they clearly desire over the "Provincial Core." In return, let Toronto keep its $2 billion. By removing the policing burden, we stop the endless jurisdictional bickering and move toward a model where the Province funds the infrastructure and services it already manages from a distance.
The Structural Solution: The “Triple-level” Strategy
I propose the Toronto Policing Transition and Fiscal Recovery Act, a landmark piece of legislation designed to bring about a synchronized transition to the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) and the RCMP.
- Urban Excellence & “Vertical Commands:” We won’t accept “rural policing” for a global metropolis. The Act will set clear “Urban Excellence Standards,” requiring the OPP to maintain specialized “Vertical Commands.” These units will be specifically trained for the unique challenges of high-density vertical communities like CityPlace, Liberty Village, and the Financial District. This includes:
- High-Rise Emergency Response: Specialized protocols for clearing vertical corridors and managing mass-evacuations for emergency scenarios in skyscrapers.
- Condo-Corridor Patrols: Integrated foot patrols that treat the interior corridors of high-rises with the same priority as city streets.
- Urban De-escalation: Advanced techniques that prioritize neighborhood-level foot patrols and community engagement over cruiser-based enforcement. Let’s see some friendly cops walking the beat again, watching over our children and helping the elderly cross the street.
- Seniority Dovetail:” To protect our frontline officers, I’ll establish a “Labour Integration Board” under the Labour Relations Act. This board will merge the Toronto Police Association into the Ontario Provincial Police Association (OPPA) through “seniority dovetailing.” This will ensure that a 20-year veteran of the TPS carries their full status, salary, and benefits over to the provincial force, preventing an “experience drain” and ensuring that the officers who know our streets stay on our streets.
- The Pension Bridge: We’ll enact “Mirroring Legislation” to guarantee that the billions in pension assets moving from OMERS to the Ontario Pension Board (OPB) remain protected, solvent, and inflation-indexed. No officer will lose a penny of retirement security in this transition.
- The RCMP Role: One Rule of Law: A new federal-provincial treaty will focus the RCMP on federal interests—like white-collar crime in the Financial District, port security, and counter-terrorism—creating a seamless, data-synchronized “One Rule of Law” that prevents criminals from exploiting municipal borders and jurisdictional gaps between Toronto, Peel, and York Region.
The Economic Benefit
The “One Billion for One Billion” deal nets the City an immediate $1 billion annual surplus (after paying a $1 billion annual service fee to the Province to maintain the new integrated model). This surplus will create a revolutionary path to future prosperity. This path ensues that the wealth generated by the city's economic engine actually benefits the people who live here.
Bike lanes are intended to make riding much safer for Torontonians. But the tension between traditional bicycles and powerful e-bikes as fast as cars sharing the same narrow lane is causing real safety concerns. These concerns ought to be addressed with new regulations, such as rigorous licensing standards and safer travel speeds, rather than wholesale infrastructure changes like the removal of all bike lanes. There is currently a lack of evidence that the removal of bike lanes would significantly alleviate traffic congestion or reduce risks to cyclist safety.
