Look at this street: there's space for safe bike lanes, wide sidewalks, short term on street parking, and a turning lane.
The goal should be to make as many of our high streets like this as possible.

Bloor and St George at 830am on a workday.
Where is the car congestion that is the pretext for Doug Ford’s death sentence to Torontonians who cycle?

If you own a business on Dupont, let the city know you want your street to be designed for commerce not as a high speed expressway out of town.
As an Annex local I want to come spend my dollars at your shops, just like I do on Bloor, Harbord, & College.

The amount of racism one gets to observe when the algorithm picks up a tweet like this one is disturbing.
Thanks to all the humans who were able to debate the topic without bringing prejudice into the discussion.

8 people on bikes in the same amount of space that 1 car would occupy.
How does encouraging people to swap bikes for cars help with road congestion?
English
Same spot, same indifference to the dangers caused by their selfish and lazy decisions.
We need concrete curbs here now.
English
@TheBikingLawyer Gut wrenching news that a person was killed here this morning.
Just around the corner neighbours and businesses are complaining about the road safety improvements on Avenue.

Horrible scene on Bloor in yorkville this morning. 3 scattered bikes, a truck driver wearing headphones, blood on the road.

Illegal tint ✅
Illegal front plate ✅
Illegal parking ✅
Toronto drivers are a public safety nightmare and proud of it.

Suburban driver stuck in traffic thinks everyone else should be too.
This is ultimate #carbrain logic

Our city is completely broken. It’s unacceptable and this clown show is supposed to host a World Cup? Those on bikes, who the city kisses their ass – not all of them but some - have no regard for people around them. Whipping by dangerously. At least they’re moving 🤦♀️ 2/2

If the city won’t close a lane for you to park at your worksite you can always just leave your trucks on the sidewalk … in one of the densest pedestrian areas of the city.
We deserve so much better.
English
Want to know why your commute sucks? It’s because companies like Purolator obstruct space designed to get people where they are going.
This driver was lane blocking at 9am for 15 minutes because he was too lazy to park in assigned delivery spots.

Thank you City of Toronto. Most of the posts have been restored.
English
These flexi posts on Bloor at Yonge have been destroyed for a few weeks now. Can the city reinstall them? They provide needed separation during the construction.
English
Another bad company who thinks that they can help themselves to public space and endanger others just because they throw down some orange cones.
English
@TheBikingLawyer Imagine making a road safety ad where the message to SLOW DOWN is directed at everyone except drivers.
English
This is hot trash. They've completely removed the perpetrator of harm from the equation, and responsibility. "Ah you know they were looking at their phone (legal) so I drove into them (illegal)"...good grief.

Eyes up, phones down! Pedestrian safety starts with attention. Stay alert and avoid distractions while walking. Your safety is in your hands! 📵 #PedestrianSafety #Crosswalk

@BikeShame @ombudsmanTO @oliviachow @TPSOperations @WSPS_NEWS I bike under this site a dozen times a week. Pedestrians are often routed across the road randomly while materials are lifted. This often causes dangerous backups into the intersection. It's chaotic.
This site needs a safety inspection badly.
English
@TheBikingLawyer These are the same people who write tickets to streetcars for being in an intersection.
English
Parking in a bike lane to remove xmas ornaments is not appropriate or safe. It’s also clear that cyclist safety is not a priority for TPS enforcement officers. So what can we do? Read our blog on automated enforcement & citizen ticketing #bikeTO:

Temporary bike lanes during construction! This is why advocacy matters even when it seems hopeless.
Thank you @cityoftoronto

Another dangerous day on Toronto streets. Same as most days. Happy Friday vulnerable road users.
