This is such welcome news…

This is such welcome news for us that live in the Bloor west area!!

I am a pro cyclist that loves to ride many kilometres on weekends. However, I am totally against these bike lanes on Bloor street. I don’t enjoy riding in a busy city street no matter if there is a bike lane or not. And adding a bike lane does NOT make it safer.

But as a parent in the neighbourhood - am excited to get back to more normal commute times to haul my children to various extracurricular activities through the week. I currently sit frustrated in a single lane of Bloor waiting at a green light for one car to turn right while the bike lanes remain completely empty. In the winter I argue there are probably less than a dozen bikes riding along the path the entire day!

Hoping this bill passes as soon as possible for the relief of all those that live in these neighborhoods!
