I would act surprised, but this is Cambridge. A city that created the horror show that is Hespeler rd. Beautiful older parts to that city and I don't want to make this a shit on Cambridge post. They complain constantly about not getting adequate attention in this region. Then they do ridiculous things like listen to a vocal minority when it comes to Bike Lanes, LRT, even their community centre. Feels like those representing Cambridge are happy to support suburban car culture, but hesitant to embrace 21st urban planning practices. Even if it is a temporary pilot. Hospital and ambulance are literally quoted in saying it has not affected there service at all. But a couple of drivers can provide anecdotal evidence and the Council submits defeat. Very disappointed in this news. I think that the local bike advocacy groups need to get organized and promote rides along these temporary bike lanes.
