I support the immediate implementation of a connected separated bicycle lane infrastructure with pilot projects beginning in 2011. This single step can greatly enhance the safety and efficiency of Toronto streets at a very low cost.

I support the proposed plan for lanes to be installed along Sherbourne, Wellesley/Harbord, St George/Beverley/John/Simcoe, and Richmond to provide a completed circuit around the downtown core.

Separated bicycle lanes have been proven to be a low cost way to improve roadway efficiency for all street users. They will protect thousands of Toronto cyclists from collision with automobiles and while also further protecting pedestrians by creating a safe barrier between automobiles and the sometimes tight sidewalk spaces. Separated lanes reduce the perceived need for cyclists to ride on sidewalks out of self-preservation. More Torontonians will feel safe cycling, adding to the cities transit infrastructure capacity with minimal capital investments.
