@juliewitmermaps I love it! I appreciate the way you illustrated the "on-road" portions, as well.

[Matthew Colenbrander @mcol_]

This looks exciting!

Millwood Rd is a vital connection between Thorncliffe Park, Flemingdon Park, Leaside neighbourhoods and Downtown. The proposed improvements include protected and connected bikeways, reduced speed limits, widened sidewalks and improved traffic operations at intersections. (2/3)

Definitely going to come back with snowshoes/xc skis once the conditions are right.

I love transit accessible green space! Don Valley Golf Course is now open to rolling, walking, cycling (and more) all winter, just steps from York Mills Station.

Wow. Great work from @JeffAllenMaps. Incredible how much the ravines have changed.

Learned a lot at the Toronto Island Park Master Plan open house yesterday. Indigenous placekeeping, accessibility, and ecological protection are central to the plan for an even better (year-round!) park.

Experience winter in Toronto.

From skating at outdoor rinks, snowshoeing through parks and more, there is snow shortage of winter activities.

Welcome TO Winter, Toronto!

Scarborough has incredible potential. Very excited about this project.

[Andre Sorensen @AndreBSorensen]

Scarborough presents a remarkable opportunity for an off-road greenway netowrk #ScarboroughGreenway https://t.co/hXcACATShb

This map shows #TransitFrequency for TTC, MiWay, YRT & Brampton Transit. #GIS data are from a new #OpenSource tool I helped create with @calebsdiehl & @ibigroup. It uses #Python to merge overlapping #GTFS route segments to show headways between stop pairs.

@311Toronto @shawnmicallef Will they be bi-directional, or the current setup +physical separation?

This account is getting less smug by the day

[Vancouver is Warmer @WarmerVancouver]

It's a tiny bit warmer in Vancouver right now (13C) than in Iqaluit (11C).

@BicycleMayorTO @EGBrickWorks @torontolibrary @KidicalMassTO @Strava @googlemaps I love this. Alternatively, there is the new multi-use pathway east of Don Mills, south from Flemingdon Park.
The small set of stairs near the bridge means it's not a barrier-free route, however.

The Tour de Thorncliffe supports kids with autism ensuring kids with all abilities get a good summer camp experience. Great community support including from @bowman_dvw @rchernoslin and friends from @TPS55Div

@EastonLSmith That's a funny looking Tacoma
