Take our lanes, we'll take yours!

Critical Mass is being organized for this Friday. Plan is to leave High Park at 6:30. Join us and put rubber to road in opposition to Bill 212 and efforts to take out our bike lanes. The fight starts now.

Regional sprawl is at the heart of Toronto congestion. This is why new highways - which will just funnel more cars into Toronto - is a terrible idea in the absence of a congestion charge.

Torontonians can walk, cycle and take transit (like we do) until we are blue in the face but if regional sprawl continues unabated, our city will always be over run with cars.

When redesigning North Yonge to become a complete street, our data showed - 10 years ago already! - that 85% of the traffic on Yonge Street (which has a subway below it) was regional commuters.

Until politicians understand this and invest significantly in REGIONAL transit and END the ridiculous sprawl in the region, things will only get worse. No tinkering at the margins on city streets will change anything.

The politics of bike lane scapegoating is fascinating. People hate their drive. Hate it. But no matter how many years they spend hating their drive, they would rather be told bike lanes are to blame than that the way we build cities and move around them must fundamentally change.

As a long-time downtown Toronto cyclist who also owns & drives a car in the city, I think have some insight into what drives some people to rage against bike lanes in the GTA. I honestly feel that root of anti-bike lane sentiment is jealousy. 🧵 #onpoli @PrabSarkaria

Few things have politicized me more against car culture than being in charge of a 2-year old and walking on the sidewalk.
