It's hard work to transform a suburban highway into an urban main street, but if North York is to ever mature and have a real downtown, this is THE place where it has to happen. North York needs a spine and so too do candidates who want to talk about leadership. #transformyonge
Not any better at Council... #TransformYonge
Nov 17 is World Day of Remembrance for Road Traffic Victims. We will be in #NorthYork to condemn the # of people hit & killed in the suburbs, advocate for #TransformYonge #TODeadlyStreets Date: Nov 17 Location: Yonge & Finch Time: 4:45 PM RSVP: facebook.com/events/3740730…
From yesterday's #CyclingGoodCheer ride with @BikewaysTO 🎅🚲 A 17km straight shot on Yonge from north of the 401 to the waterfront Enjoy the video and imagine what Yonge could like with infra for #activetransportation - it would truly #TransformYonge #BellsOnYonge #masked 1/

Our spox @JessSpieker: "Voting to keep Yonge St the same as it is now, is the same thing as saying it’s totally fine for people to continue to be violently killed and injured. There is no middle ground where our streets stay the same and also magically get safer.
Council voted 21-4 today to repurpose the curb lane Sheppard to Finch on Yonge for pedestrians and to support local business activity. #ActiveTO #CurbTO #TransformYonge #TOpoli

#TransformYonge has been deferred to allow for more study. John Tory must recognize that we need to design a city for the future, not the past. It isn't about moving cars, if we design a city that... cbc.ca/news/canada/to…
The building of Yonge St in the 1790s is already on a list as an “Event of National Historic Significance” but save one more spot for the day the “longest street in the world” becomes safe for modern Canadians to ride a bike on. #TransformYonge More: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yonge_Str…
We walked down Yonge in North York where there is an opportunity to see a much safer and more vibrant area. #TransformYonge would install protected cycle tracks and safer crossings. Getting safe infrastructure outside of downtown is key to preventing further harm. #BikeTO
Thank you most of all to @JohnFilionTO for being such a strong champion for #TransformYonge #VisionZeroTO! Mind-boggling how much delay was created by hostile #ZeroVision city councillors who value perceived driving convenience over human life. Next up: city council🗳️✅ #TOpoli
On Tuesday, excellent speakers including @DavidSuzukiFDN, @RNAO, @FFSafeStreets, @WalkTO, & @CycleToronto helped move Transform Yonge through committee. Thank you. Now on to December 16 Council.
🥳Some very bright news in a bleak and difficult year. Thanks @JohnFilionTO and all other advocates for never giving up. #TransformYonge will save lives and avert unspeakable human suffering. A meaningful step toward #VisionZeroTO! What's next, indeed?#SafeStreets #BikeTO #WalkTO
Well, its finally happened. After three rounds at council, Transform Yonge has passed and Willowdale will get the main street it deserves. I need to thank organizations who gave their support like @FFSafeStreets, @RNAO, @Walk_TO, @CycleToronto, and @DavidSuzukiFDN.
More pedestrians and cyclists are killed and seriously (KSI) injured in the suburbs in Toronto. This year has had 147 KSIs. 26 of 35 (74%) people killed were in the suburbs. #TODeadlyStreets cannot continue, but we know how to fix them. In North York it's with #TransformYonge.
Tough to listen to @TO_Transport GM Barabara Gray on @metromorning try to say #Topoli is committed to #VisionZero when we have this decision, #TransformYonge debate & the current toll on our streets that clearly demonstrate Toronto's No. 1 priority is to keep those cars moving.
City of Toronto discovers those flexi speed limits signs in the middle of streets they just installed sometimes actually work to slow down cars, so removes them. "Hey, this gesture wasn't empty like we intended!" You can't make this stuff up. #walkTO treehugger.com/infrastructure…
"can you name a single urban thinker…can you name anyone who's NOT on that list" in favour of the #transformyonge option
As a proud resident of North York Centre for 8 of my 10 years in Toronto (and counting), I'm thrilled that Council has approved the #TransformYonge plan to turn Yonge St from a 6-7 lane highway into a safer, more attractive place to walk, bike, and live.
With @jen_keesmaat coming out in support of #TransformYonge, here is a thread that dives into that issue:
1) A mapping thread to provide some context and perspective for #TransformYonge. This is Toronto’s street network.

Today we addressed the Infrastructure and Env't Cttee, asking them to vote for #TransformYonge, to save lives-creating a safe, complete, #VisionZero street for North York instead of a deadly, hostile 6-lane highway. youtu.be/5RzvUP1k3bw?t=… #TODeadlyStreets #BikeTO #WalkTO #TOpoli
Great news! #transformYonge #TOpoli
Big win for how Toronto looks at our public right of ways. Transform Yonge plan passes City Council by a wide margin. More safe space for pedestrians, cyclists and main street activity in Toronto’s north end. Congrats to the relentless @JohnFilionTO in this historic win.
If you support #TransformYonge, vote in the @TorontoStar online poll to show how strong the support is from people who care about this city for Transforming Yonge #walkTO thestar.com/news/gta/2018/…
Love this endorsement of @MarkusOBF by @BikewaysTO! As an avid cyclist in #Willowdale, it's been my experience that Markus is the only one in local gov't who supports building more of cycling infrastructure AND supports the #TransformYonge project. Go Markus 4 Willowdale! #BikeTO
In Ward 18, @MarkusOBF served as @JohnFilionTO's chief of staff & has helped champion the Transform Yonge complete street project. He recognizes we have more than enough evidence that safe streets can work in #Willowdale. #BikeTO #TOpoli #TOVotes22 #VisionZero
For the record, my full quotation was that saying No to building #TransformYonge, a #CompleteStreet to stop #RoadViolence, all to save 1600 York Region drivers *30 seconds or LESS* is perverse, and I am 💯correct. Safety matters more than slight convenience in a #VisionZero city.
-4/10 ? Not even sure how to improve- hope #reimagineyonge or #transformyonge happens! (I can’t keep up with the names 😆)
First the snow, then the SUV. How’s a dude supposed to walk on #yongestreet? #yongetomorrow now please #transformyonge #stoptionalTO #walkTO @JohnTory @JohnFilionTO ☠️
@GraphicMatt What would it take to get heated sidewalks for #TransformYonge? thestar.com/news/gta/2020/…

Champions, community, collaboration, commitment, care - cycling! 🥳 #transformyonge What a beautiful transformation it is, congratulations to all in #BikeTO, so much we can learn from here in #BikeMississauga!
Well, its finally happened. After three rounds at council, Transform Yonge has passed and Willowdale will get the main street it deserves. I need to thank organizations who gave their support like @FFSafeStreets, @RNAO, @Walk_TO, @CycleToronto, and @DavidSuzukiFDN.

What great news! That stretch of Yonge is a 6-lane highway with rampant speeding, creating a foreboding environment where local people (customers!) funny want to be. #TransformYonge will turn it into a desirable place to be: Wider sidewalks! Patios! Greenery! #bikeTO lanes!
City Council just voted for Transform Yonge, which will transform North York. It’s a bold & smart step forward. Transform Yonge will create a new downtown in North York with expanded sidewalks, business patios, safer streets & active transit. Well done Councillor @JohnFilionTO
It's been suggested that #TransformYonge could add 1-2mins for drivers, but consider this alternative; imagine reducing congestion by encouraging folks to walk or cycle to work by creating greener, cleaner, safer spaces for #activetransportation buff.ly/2sWWgVj #CityofTO

Too scared to ride, this was my greeting trying to walk to Willowdale from S of 401 to @FFSafeStreets vigil. NEVER have I felt so dejected by infrastructure. This alone hammered home how important #TransformYonge is. #Willowdale deserves SO MUCH BETTER than this. #bikeTO #TOpoli
Given the complexity of the issues, & the fact that we'll be living with the consequences for generations, we need to be better informed about transit plans & implications before we rush into a #TransformYonge decision sez Cllr @joe_cressy. His deferral motion carries, 20-15.
A group of #planning students at @geo_uoft are circulating a petition urging City Council to vote for #transformyonge tomorrow. Find out more savetransformyonge.ca @CycleYonge @FFSafeStreets @880CitiesOrg @Walk_TO

Heartfelt & articulate #TransformYonge support from #WillowDale youths, one of them a driver and a certified auto mechanic. They teach kids how to cycle, and they want it to be safe. This is the future #Toronto needs @JohnTory @JayeRobinson. Listen to them. #VisionZero #bikeTO

Jess Spieker sez she had to traverse a nasty stretch of #YongeSt with a fractured spine (due to #bikeTO hit by an SUV) & a massive bilateral pulmonary embolism. To privilege 60 seconds' driving time over ppl's lives "is not a balanced approach. That is perverse." #TransformYonge

See album for photos from the World Day of Remembrance event Nov 17 2019. #WDoR2019 We must #TransformYonge from dangerous 6-lane highway into a vibrant, healthy, prosperous main street - safe for all. #RoadViolence #TODeadlyStreets #WalkTO #BikeTO #TOpoli facebook.com/pg/ffsafestree…

#AsktheMayorCP24 Given obvious danger of a 6-lane highway for peds - stats clear re:injury & death on Yonge - why would you sacrifice #Willowdale lives & safety to save 1600 suburban drivers 60 secs or less?! 4 lanes is sufficient & SAFER #TransformYonge #ReimaginingYonge #TOpoli
