<\/p>\n

As part of a revitalization project for the Lawrence-Allen area<\/a>, including Lawrence Heights, the City of Toronto is asking local residents about pedestrian and cycling conditions and looking at ways to make improvements. This study is a great initiative, an example of how the City is starting to take active transportation seriously, and they are looking for people to participate. Anyone who lives or travels through this area is encouraged to take part. Here is the message from the City:<\/p>\n

The City of Toronto is conducting a Pedestrian and Cycling Study in the Lawrence-Allen neighbourhood. The Lawrence-Allen neighbourhood is bordered by Lawrence Ave, Dufferin Ave, the 401 and Bathurst Street. During public consultation sessions, residents from this neighbourhood have said that they would like to have a walking and cycling friendly community. In order to better understand the community’s needs and desires for walking and cycling, the City is conducting a number of focus groups and walking and cycling audit tours. Residents from the Lawrence-Allen neighbourhood as well as individuals who travel through this neighbourhood by walking or by bicycle are invited to attend a walking and\/or cycling audit tour to discuss current issues and potential improvements in the neighbourhood.<\/p>\n

Separate cycling and walking tours will be held at the following times and locations:<\/p>\n

Time: <\/strong>Wed Oct 29th 4:30 – 6:00pm
\nPlace: <\/strong>Lawrence Heights Community Centre, 5 Replin Dr. Room 16
\n
\n<\/strong>Time: <\/strong>Saturday, November 1st 10:00am – 11:30 am
\nPlace: <\/strong>Barbara Frum Library, Room B, 20 Covington Rd.<\/p>\n

Time: <\/strong>Monday, November 3rd 1:00 – 2:00pm
\nPlace: <\/strong>Lawrence Heights Community Centre, 5 Replin Dr. Multi-purpose room<\/p>\n

*NB* Due to a low response rate for the cycling audits please RSVP if you are interested in attending a cycling audit by emailing the date of the session you would like to attend to pedplan@toronto.ca<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
