Toronto Spent $160,000 on Bike Lanes for Brimley Road. Five Months Later, Itʼs Spending $80,000 to Remove Them
Toronto spent $160,000 on bike lanes for Brimley Road. Five months later, itʼs spending $80,000 to remove them Bike lanes the city installed in Scarborough this summer as part of its pandemic response are being removed just five months after they were put in. The city built separated cycle tracks on a four-kilometre stretch of Brimley Road between Lawrence Avenue East and Kingston Road in July in a wider push to rapidly install about 25 kilometres of new bike lanes under the Active TO program. The goal was to give residents space to safely get active outside and provide alternate ways to travel while social distancing on public transit wasnʼt possible. When the city announced the program in May it said staff would monitor the bike lanes and report back by the end of the year about whether to keep them. According to a presentation given to residents by city staff at a virtual town hall on Monday, the Brimley lanes will be removed “as soon as possible.” Staff cited data that showed the lanes increased travel times for drivers, as well as “dialogue with local councillors” and feedback from constituents. The Brimley lanes cost approximately $160,000 to install and the city expects to spend about $80,000 removing them. Marvin Macaraig, co-ordinator of Scarborough Cycles, a community cycling promotion program, said he was extremely disappointed. “Weʼve seen this kind of bait-and-switch game happen before,” he said, pointing to the cityʼs decision a decade ago to install and then remove north-south bike lanes on Birchmount Road and Pharmacy Avenue, also in Scarborough.

Bus Lane Implementation Plan
2045.5 For Action Bus Lane Implementation Plan Date: July 14, 2020 To: TTC Board From: Chief Strategy & Customer Officer Summary The COVID-19 pandemic has shown that the TTC is a vital service in Toronto providing transportation to essential destinations including employment, healthcare, groceries and pharmacies. Although TTC ridership may be down to 22% of pre-pandemic levels, the TTC continues to serve hundreds of thousands of customer-trips on a daily basis. We also have learned through this pandemic, that bus customers have relied on our services the most - 36% of the customers that used buses prior to COVID-19 are still using the system as compared to 19% of subway customers, as of the week ending June 26. As the city and GTHA re-opens and recovery begins, it is expected that people who have the resources and option to, will return to private vehicles, taxis or private transportation companies (PTCs) more quickly than to transit in order to maintain physical distance from others. The TTC’s surface transit network plays a critical role in moving people around Toronto and we must enhance its attractiveness to ensure it continues to provide a viable alternative to the automobile. A key initiative to achieve this is the implementation of bus transit lanes, which will provide customers with a safe, reliable and fast service. The TTC’s 5-Year Service Plan & 10-Year Outlook identified a 20-point action plan including Action 4.1 Explore Bus Transit Lanes. The TTC has worked with partner divisions at the City to develop the following prioritization and implementation plan for the five corridors identified in the Plan.
