I would prefer bike lanes be next to sidewalk, not part of the roads, and I say this as someone who cycles through Brampton. Fuck cycling on the road, I'll take a sidewalk every time. I know it's against the law, but as anyone can tell by Ford's actions, lawmakers aren't always in the right.

Having a segregated portion of the sidewalk for human-powered wheel transport makes so much sense though. I drive and walk most places, but looking at the amount of morons who park in bike lanes or struggle to stay in their lane on the road... Having the bikes, scooters, etc. Move to a separated part of the sidewalk makes so much sense.
