New commuter bike lanes may FINALLY be on the way!

Urge your Councillor to vote in support of the report and its recommendation for a new East-West bike corridor by 2009 AND a feasibility study for a new Bloor-Danforth bike lane from Victoria Park to Royal York!

There was some good news on this front at the TCC meeting the other day apparently. From Take The Tooker:

There was talk at the most recent TCC meeting from none other than Adrian Heaps that there may be a bike lane included in the Bloor - Yorkville street revitalization plans. Heaps is apparently talking with Rae and the Bloor - Yorkville BIA to try to get the plans amended to include a bike lane. Some gentle goading of Kyle Rae, the councillor in ward 27, may be in order.

I am going to reproduce this post to the TTT site. Hope you don't mind. :)
