I received an email from Toronto's Transportation Services, Cycling and Pedestrian Projects. This is encouraging. I didn't even know there was a dedicated department for this kind of thing.
It looks as if Lawrence Avenue from Port Union to Royal York is already under consideration for a future study.
I have always wanted to cycle along the Markham bike lanes along Hwy 7 but the trouble I have is to get there. There is no connectivity from where I live and I certainly don't want to drive all the way just to ride. It's an interesting design. Part of it at car level and part on sidewalk level. I see the new bike lanes at Steeles and Kennedy will be like that. Eglinton Ave E certainly is.
From driving at Hwy 7, see cars straddling the lines encroaching into the bike lane. CycleTO says that when Metrolinx is finished at Eglinton Ave, the city will take over and install bollards on the bike lanes at street level.
