Infrastructure and Environment Committee have voted to make permanent ActiveTO bike lanes on Bloor, Danforth and University Ave. @CycleToronto
@kristynwongtam RIP. π
Time for Toronto to get serious about truck regulation. Specifically:
β
#sideguards
β
#directvision standards (as in London, below)
β
time restrictions ~ e.g. rush hour bans

London (UK) mayor @SadiqKhan announces that killer trucks will be banned from the city to protect peds & cyclists >> https://t.co/okqljOJ7OR
The 17-year-old pedestrian killed by a driver today was USING A CROSSWALK near her school. I cannot take this city anymore.

Miguel Joshua Escananβs life was taken by a cement truck in a too-narrow lane on Avenue Road last month.
It's time to address #bikeTO #pinchpoints before more ppl are killed sez Hamish Wilson.

Toronto's cycling community is calling for improved safety measures following the tragic death of an 18-year-old Wednesday evening.π²π―οΈ
Clearly time for mandatory regulation of infra AND TRUCKS -- e.g. #directvision standards.

"The whole area is a #constructionzone nightmare that we have been warning about" sez @TheBikingLawyer
to CBC News. "This was preventable" β and negligent on the part of @cityoftoronto & the contractors.

Dufferin is notorious as a hostile, dangerous street. In the last several years on that little stretch, SIX severe injuries were inflicted, a product of its obsolete 1950s design. It's been this dangerous for a LONG time. #RoadViolence was predictable, and completely preventable.

Our spox @JessSpieker: "Voting to keep Yonge St the same as it is now, is the same thing as saying itβs totally fine for people to continue to be violently killed and injured. There is no middle ground where our streets stay the same and also magically get safer.
@cllrainslie @Andrew_Urbanist @Toronto @ieva_lucs @AlbertKoehl @JohnTory If true, then I hope you'll be leading the charge to #demandMORE in the name of public safety.

Kudos @TorontoPolice for focussing on driver behaviours
(speeding, distracted driving, aggressive driving, impaired driving) that are a major cause of harm on #deadlyTOstreets.
Failsafe #BuildtheVisionTO design matters too, but that's @CityPlanTO 's dept.π#Toronto #visionzero
@spicygarage @RZaichkowski @BellsOnBloor Great point Robert. For far too long #bikeTO advocates have been begging for scraps.

@dmrider @JohnTory @TorontoStar Better #Covidstreets Idea #2:
Put up barriers to implement #quietsteets / #slowstreets on the model of Vienna β and countless Dutch towns.

This is not expensive.
Nor is it complicated.
All it takes is municipal leaders willing to adapt decisively and humanely to our new reality.
This is PRECISELY the problem with these #cycling & #walking activists.
First they'll want to make streets safer during the #covid crisis.
Next they'll want to keep them safer forever.
