BikeToronto.ca is reporting on tonight's Parks and Environment Committee meeting:

  • Expanding the trail system to create a connected parks and trails system can be a relatively quick and simple way to begin work towards the Parks Renaissance;
  • ... Purchasing lands and easements for the creation of trails should be a high acquisition priority for the parks system; Create a plan and process for guiding and monitoring ongoing trail development; and
  • Establish a network of “green streets” that provides landscaped linkages to parks and trails along public rights-of-way.
Although it doesn't state it explicitly the actions stated here mesh with the Toronto's Bike Plan's goal of completing the 1074 km Bikeway Network. One point that could be added to the points above is to integrate the park trails and "green streets" into the on-street Bikeway Network.
