City to close part of Lakeshore to cars – LTR
Toronto Star, May 18, 2020
We look forward to the “quiet streets” being rolled out under ActiveTO for families to get much-needed fresh air from strolling along residential streets while children can enjoy a healthy bike ride. These are welcome and wonderful improvements for recreation and general well-being.
The next step, which is about transportation, is even more important. New bikeways, especially along the busiest TTC routes, would provide an affordable, practical and healthy travel option, especially for essential workers. In fact, this week a coalition of 60 community groups called on Mayor Tory to urgently install 100km of bikeways along the Bloor-Danforth and Yonge subways and the busiest bus routes.

The 100km figure is hardly a big demand — indeed, it merely amounts to the difference between what the Mayor and council set out (and considered necessary) in the 2016-2020 timeframe of the city’s approved Bike Plan, but failed to install.
The importance of new bikeways, in light of steep declines in TTC use during the pandemic, has become urgent. Let’s hope the mayor now appreciates the vital transportation role the bicycle can play in our city, and follows the lead of global cities that are already quickly installing new bikeways.
