Meanwhile Bloor St businesses say the bike lanes increase their business.
Etobicoke is just jelly.
I highly doubt that. What's easier than parking right in front of a store, or a few spots over and walking in the front door and only having to pay for metered parking. With a bike lane that prohibits parking you've got to park at least a couple of blocks away and pay a big fee for a spot in a parking lot. And the flow of traffic is better.

When people refer to Bloor St. shopping they are talking about the Yonge and Bloor area that Toronto is famous for. There is absolutely no way that the bike lanes are helping stores in that area.

There are more than 3 blocks of Bloor.
Try again.

Show me where you get your bullshit information. Because I have yet to read anything about this.
I posted it, you didn't read it.

Ford is re elected and the bike lanes' days are numbered.
Doesn't affect me in the least, however you:

- will not experience any easing of motor vehicle caused traffic congestion, gridlock, chaos and mayhem one bit because of the planned restoration of a few kms of urban, inner city, local, neighborhood road lanes
- will still be stuck like a squealing oinker in a coffin of steel, glass, rubber and plastic with thousands of other squealing oinkers fighting each other for every square centimeter of paved and pockmarked tar as cyclists, pedestrians and life glides happily by ya'all.

The anti bike lane conservative candidates were voted out.
Try again.

Fortunately the tunnel under the 401 will fix everything the way the Eglinton LRT has.

Its amazing you back people from the burbs whining about bike lanes in the city.
Stick to your territory and screw off.

It's more than 3 blocks.

I didn't realize that when people talk about "Bloor St. shopping" they are talking about the Annex. Are those the pics we see in tourism advertisements? Our world famous marijuana stores.

Moronic post. Don't bother trying again.

Conjecture.

What is fact, and not conjecture, is what we had to deal with ever since the bike lanes were actually in place. It was an unmitigated disaster. That's why there's been so much uproar about them.

From Yonge to High Park is pretty continual shopping and from the Don over past Greenwood also has continual shopping on the Danforth.
You should get your walker out and see more of the city.

Do you even live here?

You sound like larue, declaring that an emphatic opinion is fact.
Screw off and leave Bloor to people who live here.

Why do right wingers always want to tell everyone else what they have to do?
