AIRDRIE — Alberta's transportation minister says the province plans to learn from an Ontario court ruling that found a law seeking to remove some Toronto bike lanes unconstitutional.
Devin Dreeshen says Alberta will be watching the case with interest, especially since Ontario's government plans to appeal the ruling.
Dreeshen says being the second province to go down the same path is helpful, as it gives Alberta the opportunity to analyze the "good and bad" parts of Ontario's legislation.
The minister met earlier in the day with Calgary Mayor Jyoti Gondek to discuss bike infrastructure in her city.
Dreeshen and Gondek say the meeting was collaborative and they agreed bike lanes are temporary.
Gondek says Calgary is open to making changes if a bike lane creates congestion issues.
