    Cycling infrastructure (Separated bike lanes)

    Back to the cycle track installation at Millwood/Pape/Donlands. Photos from this evening around 6:45. Three southbound lanes merge into one Here is what I presume is the nascent cycle track from SB Millwood onto Pape, with a bumpy out bus stop and metal plates... ...which ends 50-100m...

    Cycling infrastructure (Separated bike lanes)

    I imagine it's a bit of both. Selfishly, I'd prefer a lower charge as the $0.10/min e-bike charge for members quickly approaches a TTC fare. But I appreciate that they require charging infrastructure (or increased repositioning) and are more expensive to purchase.

    TTC: Other Items (catch all)

    This is a mischaracterization of what happened. The person was found not criminally responsible, and will definitely be incarcerated in a mental institution until they are deemed to no longer a threat. This is a part of the justice system and has been for a long time. From this story: "He will...

    Taylor Creek Park Management Plan

    They have paved the trail in the valley, and are just finishing paving the trail up the hill by the parking lot (they have the fence moved over so much to allow for said paving that I had to walk the Bike Share a bit). View of the newly paved trail, and the copse of recently planted trees...

    Cycling infrastructure (Separated bike lanes)

    I can't comment on getting this corrected. However, there is a path along the other side of Bayview beginning at the corner of the south lot and extending south to the Beltline. I've only run it, so I can't comment on quality for cycling. Reachable by crossing Bayview at the signals at the...

    Sheppard Line 4 Subway Extension (Proposed)

    So we both work at Sunnybrook. This is (internally) a long term (10 years) maybe tower, to be built where the M wing parking lot is). Ford is funding private clinic ORs, when ours are shuttered 12-14h a day (I work in pathology, and support the ORs). Why not fund Sunnybrook so we can run our...

    TTC: Other Items (catch all)

    And (e.g.) deferred maintenance of roads leading to more potholes. Tory used to proudly point out how many potholes the city was filling -- and that was really a sign of the rot he helped instill.

    When we continually elect this government of clowns, we should expect a circus. I'm aware that these reports are rarely started with a blank slate; there is some goal in mind. But it's so very disappointing that the government is so obviously spending public funds to benefit private companies.

    West Don River in E.T. Seton Park Major Maintenance Project (TRCA)

    Sometimes since Friday, they have painted the new (unopened!) bike path and in the past few months paved the graded trail from Eglinton. The stairs remain unopened, with the construction staging site for the TE Seton/TRCA river works blocking the bottom anyway. Photos from today. They added the...

    Toronto Ontario Line 3 | ?m | ?s

    In the Don Valley behind and south of the Science Centre, they have over the past several weeks moved the bike path access from the OSC Gateway parking lot slightly further north and are constructing an access road to west and south of the archery range. Photos from today. Relocated bike path...

    Toronto Lower Don Lands Redevelopment | ?m | ?s | Waterfront Toronto

    Edit: @allengeorge's summary is much better It's by Alex Bozikowic. Summary (quick read): too much space given to roads, not enough to buildings. It could house more than 9000. It's going to be here for 100+ years, so we need to get this right, so he suggests another planning round for 6...
