This is a lie. I was on the Danforth Saturday night, 24 hours after blizzard, & bike lanes were full of snow & car lanes clear. Sidewalks meh. This man makes things up to rage his way into the mayoral office. Tell your not-online friends & fam.
Brad Bradford is using his former bike riding credibility to curry favour w the anti bike folks and become mayor. 'Don't worry I used to ride a bike and I now hate bike lanes too' (for political gain). This guy is the worst.

I constantly hear in some planning circles that "speed isn't a big issue for new transit", downplaying issues with our new LRTs.
and yet today i heard sooo many riders, young and old, ask "why is it so slow?"
"transit should be frequent, reliable, and FAST" shouldn't be a hot take!

Went for a 30 minute walk.
1. Nearly hit by a car running a stop sign.
2. Nearly hit by a car running a red light (but got to see the flash of a red light camera. Small victories)
3. Nearly hit by a car turning on a red without stopping…8 seconds after incident #2.
What are we even doing anymore?

This is an absolutely typical intersection for a pedestrian fatality, and where two people have been killed in a year.
-5 lane arterial
-No marked crosswalk or crossing signal
-No median refuge
-Long distances to signalized crosswalks (600' to E, 850't to W)
-Critically, bus stops on both sides
