BIXI Toronto
Bixi animation
An exciting new bicycle program is coming to Toronto. BIXI Toronto will allow users to travel across the downtown core easily by bicycle. Learn more about how it works, or how you can sign up to use the bikes.

Toronto requires 1,000 users to sign up online before November 30th, 2010 to ensure the bikes come to our City.

Cycling in Toronto
Jarvis Street Bike Lanes
The installation of bike lanes on Jarvis Street, from Queen Street East to Charles Street was completed on schedule. Cyclists will celebrate this new addition to the bikeway newtork, with a ribbon cutting taking place Friday July 30, 2010 at 8:30 a.m. on the south west corner of Jarvis and Wellesley.
Rathburn Road Bicycle Lanes Extended
The existing bicycle lanes along Rathburn Road (west of Mimico Creek) have been extended further east to Islington Avenue.
New paths for Hydro corridors and former rail corridors
A total of seven multi-use trail projects will be developed within the Finch Hydro Corridor, Gatineau Hydro Corridor, CN Leaside and Scarborough Pit Spur (former rail corridors). These projects will represent the largest expansion of the trail system ever targeted by the City of Toronto in a single year. View project maps and details.
Kids CAN-BIKE Camp
The Kids CAN-BIKE Camp is the ultimate cycling camp experience for children aged 9-13. Enroll your kids today for a full week of fun-filled bike riding action, teaching kids the skills for real-life on-street riding.
Bicycle Station at Union Station
The Bicycle Station at Union Station is a secure, indoor bicycle parking facility. Sign up and become a Bicycle Station member, for 24 hr. access 7 days a week. Summer staffed hours are Monday to Friday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Bikeway Mapping Data
Data used to map Toronto’s bikeways is now available on the City’s Open Data website. This website gives members of the public free access to City of Toronto data for a range of uses, including for research and to develop new applications. The Bikeway data is contained in the enhanced Toronto Centreline (TCL) shapefile and includes all existing bike lanes, signed routes, sharrows, off-road trails, as well as suggested routes and connections where bikeways have not yet been installed.
Nathan Philips Square re-vitalization
Improvements to Nathan Philips Square will include a bicycle station. The Nathan Philips Square bike facility will make secure parking available to both City staff, and the general public working downtown. Public consultations
As part of an ongoing process to implement the Bikeway Network, residents of Toronto are invited to participate in public consultation sessions. The purpose of these sessions is to gather feedback on individual cycling programming and infrastructure projects.
Shared Lane Pavement Markings
New shared lane pavement markings are being painted on downtown streets. These markings are called “sharrows” and are used to show the ideal cyclist position in the lane (away from the curb and parked cars), and to remind drivers to share the road. Learn more about sharrows, including how they are different from bike lanes.
T-Shirts for sale at the Bicycle Station
Come to the Bicycle Station for a chance to buy a limited number of cycling T-Shirts. Shirts are from City programs, including the Bike Locker Program, Bike Week, and more.  Prices range from $10 - $20.  Please inquire to see if your size is available.
