We were proud to participate in the staged “die-in” at Nathan Phillips Square earlier this week to support the Transform Yonge plan. Already, drivers have killed 15 people on Toronto’s streets this year. We need #BoldAction ・・・ "Stop killing our kids. Stop killing our seniors. We demand road safety." On Monday, safety advocates, friends and family members of those killed by motorists staged a "die-in" outside City Hall. Today, the city will debate "Transform Yonge" - a plan that would reduce six lanes of vehicle traffic to four, install bike lanes, widen sidewalks and add benches. Your thoughts?

We've live-streamed plenty of bike races, even barista competitions. And now... ...City Council meetings! This is where the action's at. Yesterday's debate had the same excitement, drama and surprise finish as some of the best stage or one-day races on the pro tour. . What seemed like an inevitable defeat on the progressive and visionary #transformyonge plan was saved in the end through a deferral motion. The plan to create a true destination, safe and inviting human-scale corridor in North York Centre will live another day, and return for a vote post-election. . . #biketo #biketoronto #bikecafe #fixcoffeebikes #torontocitycouncil #democracyatwork

.#KristynWongTam has a new fan in me! Eloquent, thoughtful, and compassionate. She's great. Why is she the only one talking about kids and youth?! #TransformYonge #Youth #Kids #Willowdale

The #DieIn protest for #SafeStreets at Toronto City Hall this afternoon. 16 people have died in traffic collisions so far in 2018. 1 is too many. Enough. #Mentoring #Youth #Toronto #TOpoli #TransformYonge #Willowdale #VisionZero @cycletoronto @880citiesorg

Young leaders from #Willowdale passionately speaking in support of #TransformYonge. They teach local kids how to ride bikes! Make Yonge St a place for people (young and old, new cyclist and motorist) to gather safely, not a place to drive through dangerously. Will Toronto City Council listen? #Toronto #TOpoli #Youth #YoungLeaders #bikes #BikeTO #SafeStreets #TorontoCityCouncil

We needs streets for people - like these young cyclists learning to ride in #Willowdale. Great to hear MANY deputations from local residents, business owners, and community groups in favour of #TransformYonge at PWIC this morning. Now we wait for a decision 📸 Jesse James . . . . . #SafeStreets #VisionZero #biketo #bikingtoronto #walkto #learntoride #biking #cycling #neighbourhoods #YongeSt #REimaginingYonge

Biking through #Willowdale all year, every season, rain or shine, windy or snowy. The stretch of Yonge St b/w Sheppard and Finch often feels dangerous: inconsistent sidewalks, aggressive highway-style driving, and 6 lanes of traffic. Even though tens of thousands gather here everyday, dozens of pedestrians and cyclists (the brave ones) are still hit every year. #TransformYonge helps solve that problem! This is a one-in-50-year opportunity! #Toronto #youth #kids #Urban #TownSquare #PWIC #Neighbourhood #MelLastmanSquare

Advocating for the #TransformYonge option in #Willowdale, getting set for next week's PWIC meeting at #TorontoCityHall. #bikes #pedestrians #theLiveableCity #happycity @yuwillowdale @880citiesorg @cycletoronto

The choice is clear to us! If you agree, take 5 minutes to write PWIC urging them to support the #TransformYonge option. It's the way ahead for a safer & more vibrant street. 🚴🏽♀️🌳🚍Link to suggested text in bio. . . . . #REimaginingYonge #biketo #cycletoronto #walkto #safestreets #roadsafety #VisionZero #urbandesign #urbanplanning #northyork #TOpoli #WellnessWednesday
