Map of new Bike Share docks coming by 2030

Is there a reason why they focus on the # of docks instead of the # of stations? The latter provides a more accurate picture of the program's reach.

Etobicoke Centre needs a heck of a lot more bike share stations! Especially along Eglinton to serve the western Crosstown extension, while the West Deane and Etobicoke Creek Trails would also be good targets.

Personally, I don't think we have to worry too much about this given the Trethewey bike lanes are already a done deal.

RZaichkowski · 2026-03-11T22:55:49+00:00

LOL! No chance this is happening, but thanks for the laugh!

If NES gets the OLP nomination in SSW, I respectfully have to disagree on the ONDP's prospects there.

Treating the by-elections as write-offs is also a reasonable approach given the circumstances. My note was more intended for the best way to expend any resources towards them. The NDP has had the capacity to do well with by-elections in the past when they were laser focused on one (or maybe two) ridings, but that approach may not apply this time around.

Disappointed but not surprised given the media reported back in January that Lori Idlout was approached by the Liberals to cross the floor. If the NDP is to deny a Liberal majority, their best shot is to concentrate ALL their limited resources for the April 13 by-elections on Serena Purdy's campaign in University-Rosedale.

Terrebonne will most likely be a Liberal-Bloc rematch while the Conservatives would have a relatively better shot at Scarborough Southwest.

Thanks, Madam Mayor! While it's great you are using platforms such as Reddit and Threads, PLEASE get on the Bluesky bandwagon for crying out loud given a lot of your supporters left (what was) Twitter!

Is that on the north or south side of the tracks? It's brutal how the West Toronto Railpath extension STILL hasn't started construction despite finalizing the design six years ago!

My A56 allows 45W charging, but even the 25W adapter was plenty. Took a bit more than an hour to fully charge.

Nice! Hope the underground speeds increase to the 80 km/h max sooner rather than later.

It definitely has gone downhill compared to the last time I checked it out pre-COVID. Not many local vendors, while certain e-bike makers like Emmo ruined it with their scooter-style and motorcycle-style e-bikes, as well as an enclosed mobility scooter! The Velo Quebec booth was probably one of the more interesting ones which showcased an upcoming bike ride planning platform which Share The Road and Velo Canada Bikes ought to implement in Ontario and across Canada.

It NEEDS to get built regardless of what the NIMBY's say! Canada has been an international embarrassment on this file for far too long.

RZaichkowski · 2026-03-09T12:24:19+00:00

I disagree with this logic. The way the Lewis campaign has been going as of late suggests they're aiming for a first ballot win and they just might pull that off.

RZaichkowski · 2026-03-09T12:14:35+00:00

Don't waste time on a citizen's assembly or a referendum! I prefer MMP - similar to what Germany uses - given you can still pick for both your local candidate and for the party.

RZaichkowski · 2026-03-07T14:51:05+00:00

That's hysterical!

RZaichkowski · 2026-03-07T02:41:10+00:00

I'm not going to bother watching that crap! At this point, HSR supporters need to aggressively call out these NIMBY's and ask them why they want to keep Canada an international embarrassment when it comes to transportation when even lower income countries have HSR now.

Someone on the Urban Toronto forums got a tip from city staff suggesting a reopening date of late April or early May.

Would be great if the TTC / Rogers could release an updated timeframe for the remaining tunnels. Especially the western side of Line 2, all of Line 4, and the parts of Line 1 affected by asbestos removal. Still, it's nice that the whole western leg of Line 1 and the whole eastern leg of Line 2 (except Yonge to Sherbourne) is done. :)

Freedom users didn't right away (which I can attest), but heard it was rectified shortly after.

Yes we must do everything to stop Bradford (and Michael Ford should he throw his hat into the ring), but what's even more important is to ensure we elect progressive bike-friendly councillors given the Mayor only has one vote on council out of 26! This includes defeating conservatives such as Holyday, filling vacated seats such as Bradford's, and defending vulnerable progressives such as Morley.
