May 21, 2023 - The Infrastructure and Environment Committee (IEC) meeting which will debate extending the #BloorBikeLanes from Runnymede to #SixPoints is June 5, 2023 – the matter then goes to the full council for approval! Please join the over 1,650 people in support of this plan, who have signed the petition below started by Robert Zaichkowski to Deputy Mayor Jennifer McKelvie.
Office of the Mayor (City Hall, 2nd Floor, 100 Queen St. W., Toronto, ON M5H 2N2)
Dear Deputy Mayor McKelvie and Toronto City Council,
We, the undersigned, support the extension of the Bloor bike lane westward to the Mississauga border as well as other streetscape improvements, including lower speed limits, narrower motor lanes, and an enhanced public realm for the safety and enjoyment of all road users.
The Bloor-Danforth bike lane – after decades of delays – now stretches 15 kilometres from Runnymede Road to Dawes Road which has been very successful as demonstrated by bike counts. The recent beautification of Danforth Avenue and midtown Yonge Street (pilot) demonstrated the potential of our streets as places for people to stroll with family or friends, to dine and chat, or to safely ride a bicycle to work or for leisure.
