December 12, 2023 - One of our biggest successes of 2023 was seeing the bike lanes on Yonge St. in midtown made permanent. It was a hard fought advocacy campaign that was more than a decade in the making and involved thousands of hours of work from our community of supporters.
Less than a year after this victory, we were surprised to recently learn about a construction request to close the west sidewalk, the southbound bike lane, and the northbound bike lane on Yonge St. just south of St Clair Ave for as long as 35 months!
There are three things you can do to help:
- Email the Mayor and City Council today to protect the Yonge St bike lanes during construction!
- Sign our petition calling for construction zone safety city-wide.
- Join us Wednesday for an early morning bike rally and press release at City Hall before the start of the Council meeting.
WEDNESDAY DEC. 13 WE RIDE TO CITY HALL
I hope to ride with you on Wednesday!

P.S – I hope to ride with you on Wednesday and if you can, join me at City Council to demonstrate your support for keeping people safe in bike lanes during construction.
