Bloor is the backbone of downtown Toronto's transportation network. It should accomodate all transportation modes (cars, public transit AND bikes).
East-west thoroughfares are hard to come by in this city. The fact that every block was built up independently means minor streets are almost all disjointed and don't run for long stretches. This city's design is practically begging us to move towards the "15 minute city" concept. These streets will always struggle to accommodate our population's transportation needs if we don't reduce the need to travel long distances.
The best thing we can do to reduce congestion is to continue building transit lines (genuinely huge kudos to all the progress being made there) but also to find ways to reduce the frequency and distance of car trips.
