Plans to create bi-directional bike lanes on Harbord Street were recently shelved opting to keep the current lane setup with the addition of some paint. BikeTO, the cyclist advocacy group, is disappointed the city refuses to take adequate steps to protect cyclists and says: "(the city) would prefer to not disturb the god-given rights of car drivers to convenient parking." Local businesses like Harbord Bakery that started a petition against the bi-directional lanes are probably cheering. [BikeTO]
