Alberta’s government has launched a public complaint line for bike lanes.
Albertans can now fill out a form online sharing their concerns about bike lanes in their communities, such as whether they feel the lane is underused or has taken away parking spots.
The province says the feedback it gathers will inform future policy decisions.
- 2 seriously hurt, 11 others injured in B.C. crash that shut down Highway 99
- Multi-vehicle crash including double-decker bus closes Highway 99 in Delta
- Cause of fiery Calgary bus crash that killed 3 passengers, injured 16 under investigation
- Young father killed when motorcycle crashes into Edmonton bus shelter
Transportation Minister Devin Dreeshen says he wants to hear from Albertans if bike lanes are creating traffic congestion, hurting businesses or prolonging emergency response times.

Dreeshen has said legislation is coming this fall but has provided few details on what it may include.
He says transportation networks need to put people first.
— More to come…
Staying in own lane applies only to the feds hey dani q?
between bike lanes and paid parking…if bloody terrible for local businesses
Thank God they did.
All our problems be solved now.
Nobody asked for bike lanes. This was one big money laundering scam from the start. Downtown and old strathcona streets have been rendered undrivable and the city lost thousands of residential street parking spaces.
Time to rip these out and demand a full audit on city councils connections to the builders.
Just get rid of them. They have NEVER been needed and have only ever been problems.
I would rather cyclists have their own lane than riding on the sidewalk as personally i use a cane.
