February 3, 2023 - On Monday, the Infrastructure and Environment Committee (IEC) voted in support of city staff recommendations to make both the Midtown Yonge Complete Street Pilot and the ActiveTO Bayview Cycling Network Expansion projects permanent. These projects will now go to Council next week where a final decision will be made.
89 people deputed at IEC, and it was incredible to hear from so many engaged and passionate residents who took time out of their day to make their voices heard.
We heard from Robin Richardson, and many other volunteers from Yonge4All, who who organized press conference attended by Councillors Saxe, Morley, Moise, and Bradford, who publicly spoke about the importance of building complete streets and separated bike lanes.
There were many deputations made and along the efforts of the Deputy Mayor and IEC Chair Councillor Jennifer McKelvie, and IEC members and Councillors Dianne Saxe, Amber Morley, Mike Colle, and Anthony Perruzza were crucial to support of this transformative project.
We would like to thank every single person who has worked tirelessly to make the temporary ActiveTO projects get to this point.
