The Vison Zero was created for Toronto by former mayor John Tory. This was created to have zero deaths of pedestrians and cyclists. Consultations were done locally to ask where the bike lanes should be. Local citizens know what is safe in their area.

Speed can kill. Speed limits are now lower around school zones. There are many pedestrians and cyclists in these areas.

Traffic problems are created more by construction (for repairs, transit infrastructure, condo constructions, etc.), and the amount of cars on the roads.

Reports from many cities from around the world show that bike lanes and public transit remove cars from the roads. More people will be on the streets to the shops and sites.

World-class city encourage pedestrian traffic. Pedestrians and cyclists co-exist safely together.
