Toronto mayoral hopeful Brad Bradford says he would remove portions of Bloor Street West bike lanes if elected. In coverage of his campaign, he specifies the segment between South Kingsway and Resurrection Road, saying the bike lanes would be replaced with vehicle lanes.
The outlets frame the proposal as targeting a contentious part of the city’s cycling infrastructure. The Toronto Sun characterizes the lanes as widely disliked and uses Bradford’s campaign language about “ripping out” the bike lanes. The National Observer reports the same core pledge but focuses on the planned change in lane types rather than describing public sentiment. Both accounts present the plan as a policy commitment tied to Bradford’s mayoral bid.
