West End Bikeways - Open House Meeting

The following information about the next "West End Bikeways" open house was sent by the City's Bike Plan staff:

Hello everyone,

As you know, last fall the City of Toronto and the Toronto Cyclists Union invited cyclists in the downtown west end to submit their ideas for ways to improve cycling conditions in the area south of Bloor Street bounded by the Gardiner Expressway, Bathurst Street, and Parkside Drive. The deadline for submissions was November 5th, and we received nearly 70 responses. On November 27th, we hosted a follow-up meeting with those who submitted ideas to review the submissions and help prioritize bikeway projects that can be implemented in 2009 and 2010. An on-site cycling workshop to "ground proof" the suggestions was also held the following Saturday.

The input gathered through this collaborative process has been reviewed by staff over the past few months. We invite you to attend a follow-up open house to learn more about the proposed projects and share your thoughts with us. The open house will be held:

Tuesday, March 10, 2009
6:30 p.m. - 8:30 p.m.
Parkdale Public Library, Auditorium
1303 Queen Street West (between Cowan and Brock)

This event is open to anyone who is interested in this work. Background information can also be found on the project website:

We look forward to seeing you on March 10th.

Happy cycling!
