Biking against traffic is dangerous, but that's not that's shown in the photo accompanying this article. The photo shows a cycle track. Cycle tracks are physically separated from car traffic by curbs and trees, and divided in the middle so bicycle traffic in both directions is on the same track, whichever side of the street the track happens to be on.
Both I and a neighbor of mine use it most every day. Neither of us live in the area - we work downtown and use it on our commutes.
Looks like the cycle track is pretty short - two blocks, between Wilson Blvd and Mt Hope. It'd be great if the city could at least continue it to Goodman St (and in some future utopia, Brighton could continue it to 12 Corners).
But at least cyclists will be able to go under that bridge (Intercampus Dr) without getting hit.

It would help to provide a map for each of these stories on new developments. Maybe with a layer that you can click on and off that shows other developments in the pipeline as well.
A five-story apartment building is too big for this city! Also, rents are too high in our city!
Hmm.

Never had a bad meal here. And I've eaten here like 50 times.
