Origin
Summary
This report seeks City Council authority to install bikeway projects identified in the Cycling Network Plan Near-Term Implementation Program (2022-2024), as well as one missing sidewalk project and an adjustment to Chapter 886.
Cycling Network Plan Projects
The Cycling Network Plan and the associated Near Term Implementation Plan, adopted by City Council in December 2021, seeks to build on the existing network of cycling routes to Connect gaps in the current network, Grow the network into new parts of the city, and Renew existing parts of the network to improve safety. Through this report, Transportation Services is seeking authority for bikeway projects that are proposed to be installed in the near term (2022-2024) for which design and consultation have been completed.
This report seeks Council authority to install 7.23 centreline kilometres of new bikeways associated with eight projects on the following streets:
- Avenue Road: Bloor Street West to Davenport Road (cycle track, Ward 11)
- Beltline Gap Connections
- Roselawn Avenue / Elm Ridge Drive: Allen Greenway to Marlee Avenue (bi-directional cycle track and multi-use trail, Ward 8)
- Marlee Avenue: Castlefield Avenue to Roselawn Avenue (cycle track, Ward 8) and Roselawn Avenue to Eglinton Avenue West (bi-directional cycle track, Ward 8)
- Allen Greenway: Elm Ridge Drive to Wembley Road (multi-use trail, Ward 8)
- Centennial Park Cycling Connections
- Mill Road: Rathburn Road to Burnhamthorpe Road (bi-directional cycle track, Ward 2)
- Burnhamthorpe Road: Mill Road to Etobicoke Creek (multi-use trail, Ward 2)
- Leaside Bridge to Danforth Avenue Cycling Connections
- O'Connor Drive: Hopedale Avenue to Broadview Avenue (cycle track, Ward 14)
- Broadview Avenue: O'Connor Drive to Cosburn Road (cycle track, Ward 14)
- Power Street Project
- Adelaide Street East: Parliament Street to Power Street (cycle track, Ward 13)
- Richmond Street East: Parliament Street to Power Street (cycle track, Ward 13)
- Power Street: Adelaide Street East to Richmond Street East (cycle track, Ward 13)
- Sudbury Street: Queen Street West to Abell Street (contra-flow bike lane, Ward 9)
- Steeprock-Bathurst Manor Cycling Connections
- Steeprock Drive: Chesswood Drive to Dufferin Street (cycle track, Ward 6)
- Whitehorse Road: Steeprock Drive to Rimrock Road (bike lane, Ward 6)
- Rimrock Road: Whitehorse Road to W.R. Allen Road (bike lane, Ward 6)
- West Parkdale Cycling Connections
- Glendale Avenue: The Queensway to Parkdale Road (contra-flow bike lane and bike lane, Ward 4)
- Parkdale Road: Glendale Avenue (south leg) to Sunnyside Avenue (contra-flow bike lane, bike lane, and shared-condition bikeway Ward 4)
- Sunnyside Avenue: Galley Avenue to Pearson Avenue (contra-flow bike lane and bike lane, Ward 4)
- Galley Avenue: Sunnyside Avenue to Macdonell Avenue (contra-flow bike lane, Ward 4)
- Macdonell Avenue: Rideau Avenue to Seaforth Avenue (shared-condition two-way cycling, Ward 4)
- Seaforth Avenue: Macdonell Avenue to Brock Avenue (contra-flow bike lane and shared-condition two-way cycling, Ward 4)
This report seeks Council authority to make by-law amendments associated with improvements to 0.75 centreline kilometres of existing bikeways on the following streets:
- Harbour Street: Lower Simcoe Street and 130 metres east of Lower Simcoe Street (multi-use trail to cycle track and sidewalk, Ward 10)
- Lake Shore Boulevard West: 15 metres west of Lower Simcoe Street and Lower Simcoe Street (multi-use trail to cycle track and sidewalk, Ward 10)
- Davenport Road: Wychwood Park and Albany Avenue (traffic and parking, Ward 12)
- Davenport Road: Marchmount Road and Winona Drive (traffic and parking, Ward 12)
Further, as part of this report, Transportation Services is seeking Council authority to install a new traffic control signal 50 metres west of the Jonesville Crescent and Eglinton Avenue East intersection to prepare for a new trail connection south of Eglinton Avenue East.
Transportation Services is continuing to utilize the streamlined reporting process for by-law amendment submissions associated with cycling infrastructure projects approved by Council for implementation. Once projects are approved by Council, the streamlined process involves delegation of authority to submit bills directly to Council for a discrete period of time after project implementation, which enables Transportation Services to make minor adjustments to constructed conditions without delay and based on local Councillor and public feedback, such as parking adjustments to improve sightlines, adjustments or addition of accessible loading areas, and similar modifications.
The changes proposed as part of the projects identified above would improve both safety and mobility options by providing improved cycling connections to transit, parks, local schools, businesses, and residences. Pedestrian improvements have also been included in the projects, wherever feasible, including curb extensions, new sidewalk installations, pedestrian head start signals, and motor vehicle lane adjustments.
In addition, this report seeks to make minor housekeeping amendments to existing bikeways and their associated traffic and parking by-laws on the following streets:
- Danforth Avenue at Thyra Avenue (traffic and parking, Ward 19)
- Davenport Road: Bedford Road to Dupont Street (traffic and parking, Ward 9 and 11)
- University Avenue: College Street to Dundas Street Avenue (traffic and parking, Ward 10 and 11)
- Silverthorn Avenue: Rogers Road to St. Clair Avenue (traffic and parking, Ward 9)
As part of this report, Transportation Services is recommending a one-block extension of missing sidewalk on Westgate Boulevard between Armour Boulevard and the connection to the Earl Bales Park Trail to align with the Basement Flooding Protection Program construction.
A map of the Cycling Network and Missing Sidewalk projects proposed in this report is included as Attachment 1.
Finally, this report recommends the addition of a new offence provision for CaféTO curb lane patios adjacent to cycle tracks. The new offence provision would make clear that people cycling in a cycle track must yield to people actively entering or exiting a CaféTO curb lane patio.
This new offence provision would be similar to that found in Toronto Municipal Code Chapter 886- Sections 14 and 14.1 which address bicycle operation at transit stops and accessible loading areas which prohibits people cycling in a cycle track from, among other things, passing a Toronto Transit Commission bus which is stationary for the purpose of taking on or discharging a passenger and that people cycling must yield to people actively utilizing accessible loading areas, respectively.

That the Infrastructure and Environment Committee recommends that:
1. City Council request the General Manager, Transportation Services to ensure, where feasible, that all work-zone permits to encroach into the right-of-way on Avenue Road between Bloor Street West and Davenport Road preserve at least 0.6 metres of the curb lane to provide sufficient space for cycle track protection and winter maintenance.
That the Infrastructure and Environment Committee recommends that:
1. City Council direct the General Manager, Transportation Services to maintain the right-turn on red movement at the intersection of Mill Road and Burnhamthorpe Road and monitor for safety concerns post installation and report any recommended adjustments, as needed.
