I've lived here long enough to see where this is going to go. The same as the bus lane pilot. The city refused to collect data the year prior to the bike lane installation despite being asked, and now a full year of use in warm weather we still don't have real data.

Council is hillbilly-ish as a whole when it comes to anything non-car, and will justify ending the project due to lack of 'real evidence that anyone is using it'.

The same staff who have been saying they can't touch the road network in the lower city since 2007 because LRT is coming by 2024 will suddenly find a way to quickly rip up a pilot bike lane project just like they did with the bus lane. I've never seen a city hall department move more quickly than during the bus lane removal.

Yes We Cannon should be mobilizing for the bigger fight of the two - seeing the pilot project come and go without the lane being returned to speeding cars.
