Overview
- The work covers Bloor Street West between Resurrection Road and Clissold Road, where one vehicle lane will be reinstated without removing cycling infrastructure.
- Protected bike lanes will be upgraded with barrier curbs and bollards, and one direction’s lane will be temporarily removed during construction.
- The project is budgeted at roughly $750,000, with construction expected to start on or shortly after Oct. 20.
- A July Superior Court ruling struck down the province’s bike‑lane removal law as unconstitutional, citing increased safety risks to cyclists and no evidence of congestion relief.
- The government has appealed with a hearing set for January; Minister Prabmeet Sarkaria casts the change as a first step, and Cycle Toronto says it supports keeping protected lanes in place.
