Commentaire

The implementation of bike lanes on Bloor St. W. has been a complete failure on different fronts:

1. Traffic jams have become a regular events, regardless time of the day, which results in creating more pollution due to car idling .

2. Emergency vehicles have difficult time in getting to destination due to traffic jam.

3. Traffic has been diverted to side streets, making the neighbourhood more dangerous and unsafe.

4. Seniors have difficult time to ride a bicycle to go to the grocery store or to any other store, especially in the winter time.

5. The bike lanes are hardly used by cyclists. It is incomprehensible that a small group of people will decide for a large percentage of the residents.

6. The pilons are distracting, dangerous and they don't blend well with the neighbourhood.
