They have very valid concerns about speeding, but the parking and the speeding are two different issues," she said. "It's a step backwards for the town... and it will be a very sad day when we start taking out bike lanes." Oakville Mayor Rob Burton reiterated an early position he had taken that he was not comfortable taking away something people had enjoyed for several years unless it was for a very good reason. Ward 6 Councillor Max Khan said Town staff had told him the situation was unique and was not precedent setting. With that, the majority of council voted to remove the dedicated bike lanes and bring back on-street parking for River Oaks Boulevard East. Ward 2 Town and Regional Councillor Cathy Duddeck, Damoff, Ward 4 Town and Regional Councillor Allan Elgar and Ward 4 Town Councillor Roger Lapworth voted against the decision. The removal of the dedicated bike lanes is expected to cost $5,000. The decision comes as Oakville prepares to host the Halton Active Communities Summit on Thursday, Oct. 18.
