The problem with the government’s plan to build more highways, though, is that it doesn’t actually solve anything. The money is wasted because traffic only gets worse.

    Great in the winter. Lots of bike usage.

      So long as the roads are plowed, winter cycling is pretty easy. I bike all year round in toronto, and just the exercise keeps me warm enough that I’m out in a sweater until -10 or so, and any colder you can bundle up pretty effectively.

        Yup i bike year round also and the worst part is drivers forcing me into the slush and plow furroughs, which would be solved by proper bike lanes.
