Yes, "Unteeteily" street is a terrible spot for bike lanes!

Notably, the hospitals themselves are not advocating for removal of the lanes. Just the clowns trying to get Bad Bradford elected.

Biking along Harbord St. earlier this week

Question for y'all. Why do some of the islands/buffers have planters while others are full concrete? Most full concrete islands don't appear to be part of loading/bus stops/pedestrian crossings/etc. but maybe there is a engineering/technical reason for some (sightlines? utilities?). I like the green buffers a lot, would like to see more!

Montreal and other cities create "raingardens" where the rain runoff flow into the groundwater slowly.

hahahah couldn't they have just taken a photo of the street itself? Is it really that hard?

more seriously: I continue to believe that the province is likely to win their appeal of their bike lane legislation and be permitted to rip these out themselves. As much as I generally dislike the province's meddling, the lower court's decision on the matter is rather ridiculous in my view and is unlikely to stand on appeal (assuming the province can actually mount a reasonable defense).

One of the ABC Toronto "board members" lives in St. Catharines, so I imagine getting out to take photos in Toronto might take some effort.

Another one does live in Toronto, but is a complete nimrod, so probably couldn't work a camera.

so is Eglinton connect dead before it even started, the fact they didn't do it while they were rebuilding for the crosstown means they never wanted to do it to begin with in my pov

No.

No, it means the province complicated matters; and one west end councilor fussed and and its an election year, and there's a FIFA construction moratorium.

Though, for the record, they should 've got it done earlier. But its coming.....slowly.

Looking at ABC's LinkedIn posts, it's nothing but obvious political shilling for someone, and attacking Mayor Chow.

And it looks like their client is none other than Bad Bradford.

Further to the earlier note about the upcoming public drop-ins for the Eglinton & Allen Intersection Study, my latest blog post gives this study the roasting it deserves given how most of the options were clearly car oriented.

Queens Park Cres E lane north of Wellesley. I think one oversight was left turns for eastbound traffic onto this lane, as it requires 3 intersection crossings as is.

 

[Aplus23]

No.
