One thing about people citing slower car travel times on Bloor West following the bike lane install is, well, that was kind of the point. Drivers were **averaging** nearly 20 km/h over the current speed limit at spots. Road revamp has brought speeds closer to limit. www.toronto.ca/wp-content/u...

Two bar charts comparing average and 95th percentile vehicle speeds in km/h across five Toronto locations over three time periods (2021/23, 2024, 2025/26), with a posted speed limit of 40 km/h indicated by a dotted line.

Excited to start painting this with gouache. I find that when I combine media like pen and paint it’s either going to be a tinted drawing or a complete mixed media production lol this is a production

We have a special election panel episode for you on the @spacingradio.bsky.social feed, focusing on interesting and important council races.

Can incumbents be unseated? Which wards are up for grabs? And why is Stephen Holyday?

All of that and more right here: spacing.ca/toronto/2026...

If this was just a prank on Councillor Nunziata, it’s actually deliciously mean because, after 30 years on council, who would bat an eye if she really did retire? It’s weirder if she doesn’t.

It’s a constant gamble with these things. We’re a small team, and we don’t have the quickest turn around, so putting out episodes like the one today is always just “well, I hope this still matters tomorrow.” 😅

Just in time for Adv voting during #TOpoli

Crack a cold one, sip some tea or gather the family. Essential listening for the 18 y.o. in our household who just came home for the Turkey weekend and will be leading a pack of ten newly minted first time voters in #TorDan to the polls.

No Pressure! ✌🏾📢✊🏾
