Oda Al-anizi, a disability rights advocate who lives with a spinal cord injury, has been using Toronto's bike lanes for the last few years because of a new e-bike attachment to his wheelchair that allows him to move around the city more easily.

"The city has been more open to me and I've been able to more easily have a social life or go to work," he said.

Al-anizi, a longtime Toronto resident, said bike lanes are an issue for people with disabilities and mobility issues, especially for those who don't feel seen by drivers on the road or have accessible transit modes.

"Drivers can't see sometimes, I am pretty low and [they] can get aggressive," he said "For me, it's very important to be in a dedicated space for bike lanes, it makes me feel a lot more safe."
