Are you going to rip bike lanes up, which doesn't seem very fiscally responsible? Are you going to put a moratorium on them? Are you going to assess as they kind of expire in their lifespan and decide then, like, how are you actually going to make sure that this doesn't cost us more tax dollars and more of a headache while ripping up these annoying things on the side of our roads? Without, you know, basically just making sure that you're doing it in a smart way.

And you don't have to pay twice or taxpayers don't have to pay twice for the same road network.
16:49
So great, great question.
16:51
And I think what the legislation is going to tackle first is the traffic impact assessment.
16:56
So if there is a bike lane that's, again, on municipal public land.
17:00
or if it's through a park, or if it's somewhere that doesn't impact an existing road network, there's no issue.
17:07
There's no provincial issue with that at all, but it's that road capacity.
