The Toronto Centre for Active Transportation (TCAT) was commissioned by the City of Toronto, the Metcalf Foundation, the Bloor Annex BIA and the Korea Town BIA to investigate the economic impacts – positive, negative or neutral – of the bike lane, as well as its effect on the travel patterns and attitudes of visitors and merchants.
