As Waterfront Toronto looks to develop the walking, cycling and transit infrastructure on Queen’s Quay east of Yonge Street, Walk Toronto has prepared a report on the issues facing pedestrians in the design of the already-developed western portion of Queen’s Quay. The report is based on a walking audit of the interface between pedestrians, cyclists, and transit and other vehicles at intersections from Spadina Ave. to York St., and was prepared by Mark Jacobs, a member of Walk Toronto’s steering committee.
While overall the Queen’s Quay walking and cycling paths are a welcome development, the report highlights issues with the design that are confusing to pedestrians and cyclists and dangerous to people with disabilities, and provides recommendations for solutions.
