BURLINGTON, ON
Clive Thomas was riding northbound on King Road today for his swim class at Angela Coughlin and said he was “ almost clipped by a passing SUV while crossing the bridge on the 403 overpass.
“Those bridges are under Ontario rule. There is NO room to pass if there is oncoming traffic. Will a body have to be scraped off the road before safety measures are put in? I ride everywhere in Burlington and am livid with Ford.
There is a marker on the right side of the photograph showing a bike lane – pretty small. Let’s see what MPP Natalie Pierre can do for Clive.
“This is a life and death matter, and for a guy like Ford who never misses a meal and never rides a bike, this borders on madness.
“I want to call you on this matter. I almost bit the pavement today , and want clarity on this matter. I’ve cc’d the Gazette here for your information. Please let me know when you will able to take my call.”
Whenever I see a cyclist trying to navigate our busy roads I wonder why on earth would they risk life and limb.
It is going to get worse sooner than later. Use the trails .
