Ontario Transportation Minister Prabmeet Sarkaria says the provincial government is introducing legislation that would require municipalities to receive provincial approval before removing traffic lanes to install new bike paths.
Sarkaria said the plan will bring “informed decision making and oversight to a process that is frankly, out of control.”
He said the government is also developing a plan to allow vehicles to travel safely at speeds higher than 120 km/h on new highways.
