In an op-ed today, @albertkoehl.bsky.social argues that cycling advocates need to take over the script from Premier Ford spacing.ca/toronto/2026...

READ: “If bike lanes were actually removed today, the premier would lose his scapegoat. How would he then explain worsening motor traffic congestion – an outcome that’s virtually assured given a growing population and his measures to induce driving by making it cheaper…” Via @spacing.bsky.social

Per @albertkoehl.bsky.social's latest article in @spacing.bsky.social, "If bike lanes were actually removed today, the premier would lose his scapegoat. How would he then explain worsening motor traffic congestion?" Well said! #BikeTO #TOpoli #ONpoli #VisionZero spacing.ca/toronto/2026...

Guess which bike lanes had biggest % increase over past 4 months in Toronto, based on data from permanent counters? BIKE LANES ON BLOOR in ETOBICOKE, of course! From 79,000 in 2025 to 97,000 in 2026. An upward trajectory that will continue w surging local popn in res towers+BikeShare #biketo #onpoli

Data Counts - more people walking & cycling than one person per car - yet majority of public street space given to private vehicles 🚗 @bikewaysto.bsky.social @cycletoronto.bsky.social

Our 75km Ride the Loop, Close the Gaps on Sunday. Warm sunshine + smiles along the city's beautiful ravines + rivers. Closing the Loop will take just a bit more effort from CityHall to close 10 small on-road gaps to create a world class Loop. Ask your council candidates to Close the Gaps. #biketo

Together w/ @crashcoalition.bsky.social & @movementyvr.bsky.social, we're calling upon the Chief Coroner, Dr. Baidwan to assess the greater fatality risk of pickups and large SUVs on road safety, and to make recommendations to address these dangers.

Hey we hear there's a provincial election coming up. We also hear the cost of living is soaring. You know what would be a cool campaign promise?

Thanks @bikewaysto.bsky.social & Scarborough Junction Community for hosting today's Loop Trail and Scarborough Link rides which call for closing the gaps on their respective trails. You can read about the Loop Trail ride on my blog. #BikeTO #ScarbTO #TOpoli www.twowheeledpolitics.ca/2026/09/sept...

Our brave seniors!! Let's hope @mark-carney.bsky.social is listening.

Best line in today's Globe&Mail editorial urging Donald Ford to butt out of city bike lanes:

"Among bicycle lanes on the chopping block are separated routes on Yonge + Bloor streets + University Ave – all of which have become key parts of the city’s transportation infrastructure" #biketo #onpoli

Good morning Bike Lanes on Bloor! We're still here protecting you on your morning commute, or wherever you are going today. #biketo #onpoli

"The speed camera, which was near the crosswalk where the teen was hit, had been removed as part of a provincial government directive that road safety advocates and municipal leaders warned would lead to more injuries and death on city roads." #biketo #onpoli

"Ridiculous and absurd, sure, but this “war” is still on, and it has many active fronts." Well said @shawnmicallef.bsky.social www.thestar.com/opinion/cont...

Great investigative piece by Star abt Ford's rejection of city's compromise plan to restore car lanes but keep bikelanes. Ford rejection of win-win plan won't sit well with many Ontarians who prefer a respectful Made-in-Canada approach over Trump-style vindictiveness. #onpoli @andytakagi.bsky.social
