Traffic, cycling & pedestrians

On a street too narrow for everyone, who comes first: cars, bikes, pedestrians or transit?

Longer version: P04 · How would you balance cars, bikes, pedestrians, streetcars and buses when improving one mode makes another less convenient? Give us one concrete Ward 14 example.

Your answer

Maria Voutsinas

I object to the concept that there should be a priority of transit modes. Residents should be able to get around the city safely in a way that suits them, their preferred mode of transit and where they are going.

Denise Walcott

They all matter, but safety comes first, especially for pedestrians, cyclists and people with disabilities. I would protect accessible sidewalks and crossings, prioritize transit on busy routes, and maintain safe cycling connections while accommodating emergency vehicles, deliveries and necessary car access. The balance depends on the street.
