One of the most well used parks in the city. The state of parks maintenance in general is an absolute embarrassment.

No bike lanes on Bathurst street and it's still bumper to bumper traffic. Bicycles and bike lanes don't cause traffic, personal vehicles *are* the traffic. #BikeTO
Stop leaving garbage ‘food’ or anything for birds!!
People?! Stupid PEOPLE!! Human food is very unhealthy for animals. Wild animals are skilled foragers and hunters and can find sources of higher quality food on their own. toronto.ca/community-peop…
@jsquaredink @ONPlace4All @normsworld @BromptoningLove @BromptonBicycle @PinkHelmetTO Had a lovely time this morning, thank you! The rain didn’t stop the birds being out either!
An 11 year old boy, with others at the time, critically injured. "It’s a beautiful day, this happened during good [driving] conditions" @VoiceoverCop where is data on tickets issued to drivers and pedestrians following fatal & serious ped injury crashes? toronto.citynews.ca/2024/04/26/ped…

Very normal for people driving to have their passenger roll down their window to scream about how I, a person on a bike, riding as close to the curb as I safely can, should be riding on the sidewalk. Ontario needs mandatory driver re-testing. These people should not be driving.
“Getting to zero is impossible…” It’s amazing how confidently some people just throw this out there. Don’t fall for it. These three cities got to zero by cutting speed limits, changing street design, and removing space for cars. It works. #VisionZero

Never forget, a 13-year study found that protected bike-lanes led to a drastic decline in fatalities for all road users. ALL ROAD USERS. And painted bike-lanes? No safety improvement at all. For sharrows, it’s safer to NOT have them. Via @StreetsblogUSA usa.streetsblog.org/2019/05/29/pro…
There's also value in integrating Toronto Bike Share into TTC & having a process to allow people to use Bike Share at no additional cost during TTC emergencies/subway closures. That process could be much easier if Bike Share were integrated into PRESTO. x.com/bikewaysto/sta…

In 2021, 5.6% of all trips in Paris were by bike, by 2023, with further expansion of the City’s protected cycling network, that number rose to 11.2%. 📸 @CommuteDeParis 📍 Paris 🇫🇷 🚲
Streets are the single largest public space in cities, and have the potential to improve age, gender, access and social equity. But only if we stop privileging one transportation mode over all others. A pleasure to present “The Human Case for Fewer Cars in Our Lives” in Antwerp.
This is a contravention of Canada’s Migratory Bird Convention Act and Species at Risk Act waiting to happen. This is NOT how exclusion netting like this is meant to be used. Birds returning to their breeding grounds will very likely get tangled in it and die.

#cdnpoli As always, twisting the facts. City planning ("gatekeepers") didn't object to this infill project; it was blocked by the Committee of Adjustment and neighbourhood opposition.

A good visual reminder that subways: -Move *far* more people every day than private vehicles. -Are far more scalable, efficient, and cleaner than personal vehicles. Drivers often think they represent more % of travel than they do. Underground subway = "out of sight, out of mind"

Paris is in the middle of a plan to transform into a 100% cycling city. They are also poised to introduce “pedestrian hearts” in each district, inspired by Barcelona’s superblocks, reserving areas for pedestrians, cyclists & public transport. @MomentumMag momentummag.com/paris-to-showc…
Bikeshare proves the importance of network redundancy. This is a map of trips taken from bike share stations. That large dot is showing number of rides near Jane station (terminus of fire shutdown). Also, why the Bloor West bike lanes are valuable!

A long-delayed project that would make streets safer, support local businesses, and make our community more vibrant in Scarborough... You can help bring it to life! Give Mayor Chow a call and share your support for the Danforth Kingston Complete Street 📞 416-397-CITY (2489) ☎️
Some of our volunteers spoke at the city's Infrastructure & Environment Committee (IEC) meeting last month. Ella talks about how we STILL haven't had a public consultation for the Danforth-Kingston complete street extension project. #danforthkingston4all #completestreets
🧵Two things explain Doug Ford: 1. Revenge against Toronto. 2. Complete and utter lack of class. 1., for taking away his drug-abusing brother’s powers as Mayor, remembering his own murky past in the drug-dealing trade, and declining to elect him as Mayor in place of Rob. …
@cityslikr Working with a short term and the expectation of a united and deeply hostile challenge from the right in the next election, piling up wins on things that people will feel instantly seems like a smart strategy for winning a second term with support from the center and center-left
I've criticized Mayor Chow much more than I thought I would here but it should be acknowledged that she's knocking the low-hanging fruit out of the park. Also, indicates just how inattentive to details her predecessor was.
Open for the season! 80% of park washrooms are open—earlier than expected. The remaining will be opened over the next week. We are ahead of schedule this year thanks to the tremendous efforts of City staff.
@eddrass @MayorOliviaChow @TPSMyronDemkiw Plus subway closures are usually sectional. Closing the streets to general traffic above closed subway sections helps Toronto Fire, Paramedic Services & TPS by making it easier for them to respond faster to subway emergencies. The Mayor, TTC Chair & TPS Chief should act on this.
Fortunately, there are now good alternatives to driving alone in a car.
Find yourself a city councilor who prioritizes children’s mobility, independence & safe streets. Can we get 10 donations today of $5 or more to support his campaign?! @RobinYeOR secure.actblue.com/donate/friends…
Happy 2 Year Anniversary to the Bike Bus @CoachBalto! I’m so proud to live in Portland bc the bike bus movement became viral here in our city. Bike buses give kids a great way to get to school in the mornings, but Portland needs safer routes to school & the city should help.
Some background on #BikeTO Eglinton - how it all happened (don't even get me started) .. and what we are trying to do to fix it.
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/
@observinthecity Taking a @BikeShareTO at Jane is faster than waiting for a bus to go up to Annette or down into the valley (#55) - personal experience - bike #TheLastMile works since no Rapid Bus Route on Jane or Dundas
@BikewaysTO @BikeShareTO @ttcriders Not just Kipling to Jane either. All temporary closures should prompt Bikeshare to provide more bikes. Like line 1, which will be partially closed all day Saturday - some extra ebikes at Davisville would be fabulous.
UPDATE: I've coordinated with Transportation Services (TS) to get TS staff onsite now to identify opportunities to improve congestion through traffic management changes and to ensure Bike Share staff will be available to refill local Bike Share stations often over the weekend.
No trains are running between Kipling + Jane stations due to a track-level fence fire that started around 3:30 p.m. yesterday. The fire spread, severely damaging a signaling box and communication cables critical to subway operations. TTC crews are repairing the infrastructure.
Park washrooms open early. King St streetcar priority improvements. Crappy garbage bins replaced. Attacking the fiscal state of affairs. Chipping away at the mess she inherited.

@HumberRiverTO @wardFORpeople Unfortunately Doug Ford is too young to remember Hurricane Hazel. And he doesn't seem to be interested in learning anything.
@wardFORpeople @metromorning @ttcriders @MayorOliviaChow Deprioritizing tens of thousands of people (who take transit) because the city doesn't want to make hundreds of people (who drive) unhappy. It is utter insanity.
Hey @311Toronto spray painting a hazard and then not fixing it for 10 weeks will not be a successful liability defense if someone gets hurt here. Please address asap. Cc @DianneSaxe
