If you’ve ridden your bike on Eglinton in the past year, you probably noticed these weird bike lanes to nowhere. So what’s going on with those? 1/

Is this the best way to design a new urban neighbourhood? Tower and podium massing, a grid of roads as wide as 40m?

@saintfridaa @moore_oliver Unfortunately Toronto Police does NOT care about bicycle issues. Overpaid, with no mayor past 20 yrs standing up to them, they do what they want. Politicians? Same. Car theft? Millions to combat. Bike theft? Citizens helping each other. This case, thief destroyed bike. Sad.
So driver #undietaker is a selfish loser who blocks bike lanes with parking literally beside them and leaves their dog locked in the car. #bloor #loser #bikelane

Show us the real numbers then. We said it right in our press conference; come out from the back room and show us how the MegaSpa isn’t going to be a drain of taxpayer dollars. We used assumptions because your government is hiding financial info from the public. #onpoli #topoli
In 1 week 4 cyclists contacted us after suffering injuries from doorings. 2 needed surgery. Clearly motorists are not expecting (wrongfully) to see the Spring influx of cyclists on our roads. Read our dooring guide to stay safe & protect yourself: thebikinglawyer.ca/post/doorings-…
What an unacceptable insult from @KingaSurmaMPP regarding Ontario Place. NOBODY in Ontario supports wasting over $1 billion on a mega spa & the destruction of @OntScienceCtr except for @fordnation's buddies. Stop the spa NOW! #shame #ONpoli #BoycottTherme @SaveOSC @ONPlace4All

I wonder what makes people avoid this bike lane.
Would be great if we applied the same level of design, testing, scrutiny and regulation used for our children's car seats to the bike lanes they ride to school in.
@dylan_reid BlogTo is running a lot of April Fool's Day jokes this morning, and they do a disservice to their readers and brand
I'm convinced BlogTO doesn't understand how April Fools works. Every year they just post headlines with no obvious joke or satire and then at 5pm go "haha I can't believe you believed the plausible-sounding humourless misinformation we posted"

Wow, great crowd in Toronto at #StopThe413 Rally, and some GASP members there too! Wherever you go in #Ontario, people don't want to carve up the #Greenbelt to save 30 seconds on a commute. This highway was studied and shelved for a good reason. Why is Ford so keen on this ?

Canadas famously conservative province is talking about major rail investments because of the cost of highway expansion. Amazing
Minister Dreeshan says the province has been looking at increasing lanes to several major Alberta highways, and rail would alleviate that pressure on those roadways.
