Don't worry, when it came to including curb-separated bike lanes alongside the streetcar ROWs, so did the city's planners.Oh I see, you were referring to streetcars in their own right of way separated from traffic. My bad, I missed that part.

Yes! That was one of the 3 concurrent rides that happened following the protest.Did you guys bike by Bloor and Dufferin around 3 p.m.? A big bike ride passed by, so I cheered and hollered.
I believe recent amendments to the bill allow the Province to sidestep the city and directly remove the lanes itself.Question: Assuming that this bill passes (big assumption) what is the process to actually dismantle the lanes? What would happen if the City fails to budget for reconstruction or keeps deferring it? What, if anything, can the Province do if City Hall ignores them?

We do have staff who put some good thought into things..........
I drove over the Leaside bridge on Sunday and couldn’t understand why there was a traffic jam, until I realized they’d taken out a lane of traffic in both directions for separated bike lanes. And during those 40 mins not a single cyclist in either direction. We need separated bike lanes, but we need to do it better.
