The City of Toronto is proposing a new bikeway that will connect Queen Street West to Queens Quay West. This new cycling route will run along Portland Street – across the Puente De Luz pedestrian/cycling bridge – and down Dan Leckie Way. This project is part of the Council-approved Cycling Network Plan for 2024 and will provide a safe cycling route connecting our City’s waterfront with the bustling and rapidly growing fashion district. It will also provide traffic calming measures and reduce neighbourhood traffic infiltration.
Project Goals:
Based on public feedback, the project team updated the cycle track design. These updates will be shared at a virtual public meeting on Tuesday, January 23rd (6:30 – 8 p.m.).
