Your 1.2% figure is from 2011, covers entire GTA, and predates the installation of bike lanes.

The Bloor, University and Yonge lanes were installed between 2016 and 2021.

A 2019 poll for the City of Toronto found 70 per cent of Torontonians rode bikes. Forty-four per cent identified as "utilitarian" cyclists, who bike to work, shop, visit friends, etc. Another 26 per cent said they were "recreational" cyclists, who bike for leisure or fitness. Just 30 per cent said they didn't bike at all. Of all respondents, 10 per cent said they ride their bike to work in good weather.
