I live in a condo on Bloor St and find it dangerous to enter and exit our driveway. I have to look for cyclists, pedestrians on the sidewalk and hold up the one lane of traffic to do this. It now takes me at least 20 minutes to get from Thompson to Jane St along with other drivers sitting still and polluting the environment. This stretch of Bloor St has the subway system and doesn’t need other alternative transportation like bikes. The white sticks pollute the visual environment of what used a charming neighbourhood. I attended the info meeting about 3 yrs ago when these bike lanes were proposed. The turnout was overwhelming with residents leaving their concerns with post it notes. Our councilor, Morley, just stood on the sidelines with her bottle of water in hand, not interested in opinions. It was obvious at that meeting that residents didn’t want this yet our concerns were overridden. As taxpayers, city council should be respecting our views.
