Hello,

This is a final update on the Annette Street bike lanes. The outstanding section of the bike lane on Annette, between Runnymede and Jane, was approved by City Council yesterday evening, Thursday October 30th. This decision supports the recommendation of City staff which was presented as "Option 1" at the public meeting held on September 15th, 2008. The bike lanes will now be installed along both sides of Annette as the current road re-surfacing work is completed.

If you would like to read Council's Decision Document, it should be available Monday on the Agenda and Minutes page, which you can find here:

Thank you for your time and interest in this issue.

Regards,

Matthew Cowley
Public Consultation Unit
City of Toronto

Just wrote him and voiced my disappointment. Offered to take him out for a ride in his ward or from his neighbourhood office to city hall to get a bit of a feel for what we're asking for. Maybe that's what we need "Take your councillor to work day!"
