Plan for downtown street is expensive, unreasonable and a win for cyclists but no one else, reader says
SooToday received the following letter to the editor in response to city council's deliberations over the future of Queen Street — and those who oppose the plan. Councilors voted last night to defer the decision.
The proposed plan for downtown Queen Street is expensive and totally unreasonable considering that money for this project could be better used fixing our deplorable roads. This advocacy group for cyclists is way off base. Is it not enough for them that many roads have been reduced to two lanes to accommodate bicycle lanes?
Let us all stop and think about this. After all, it is a huge inconvenience to motorists and they are the ones who stand to lose most; the cyclists only win. Also, those of us who are disabled or elderly need easy access to parking on Queen. This is something those young and fit enough to cycle will not appreciate until they are older and/or disabled.
