July 15, 2025 - A new EKOS poll commissioned by Cycle Toronto shows that a majority of Torontonians, 7 in 10, are in favour of the city’s efforts to keep building protected bike lanes reports Toronto Today.
Support is consistent regardless of gender, education, and even age, but climbs to 80% among respondents under 35.
An even larger majority, 79% agreed that “the City of Toronto needs to do more to protect vulnerable road users, “including people walking, senior citizens, school children and people who ride a bike.”
Regarding the planned removals of bike lanes on Bloor Street, Yonge Street and University Avenue, 51% of Toronto respondents said they were against the removals, with 44 per cent in support.
The province’s own experts substantiated that arbitrarily ripping out protected bike lanes will not solve traffic congestion and will put people’s lives at risk.
