Safe roads should be treated as a right, not a gift bestowed (or denied) by a local councillor. Our process is the problem, promoting endless debate on issues that should be beyond question. We propose a new process. Here's our op ed. spacing.ca/toronto/2024/0…

City road safety policies are clear. The community has done tireless work. Public consultations on the staff plan are complete. And the need is urgent. Now it's time for local councillors to deliver. @DianneSaxe @JoshMatlow

The St. Patrick’s Day Parade starts at 12 noon on Sunday March 17th from the corner of St. George/Bloor W. The route goes E on Bloor, S on Yonge, W on Queen and ends at Nathan Phillips Square around 1:30 pm. Road closures from 8 am until about 2 pm. stpatrickstoronto.com
Converting a 6-lane downtown motorway into a safer road with lower speeds should be easy, right? Yet, it's taken 7yrs, an exhausting community effort +20 supportive groups to get action. On Mar 27, we'll count on councillors @DianneSaxe @JoshMatlow to see the project through.
I have also committed to hosting two more events on this project: - A second info session on Thursday, April 6, 2024 - A Town Hall on October 16, 2024 Please sign up for my newsletter for more information about these events closer to the date: ambermorley.com/newsletter. 9/10

Some interesting charts in @GraphicMatt lastest newsletter (this one is free to view, btw). Tracking the city's intersection traffic counts - the heaviest pedestrian (and overall) last year was Yonge and College. Queen West, Kensington Market, Cabbagetown most pedestrian areas.
Let Councillor Saxe know that you support a safer, saner Avenue Road.
