Description

Everywhere on Toronto streets there are pylons around construction sites. Workers tend to put the pylons right on the white line, forcing cyclists dangerously into the traffic in the left lane. When the pylon (or traffic cone) is just to the right of the white lane, there is no problem passing, but often, as in this intersection at Bay and College there are streetcar tracks going in various directions as well as heavy traffic. The pylons are on the white line and there's nowhere for the bicycle to go. Often cyclists will pass inside the construction zone but this is sometimes not possible and surely not what is intended. What is the law around placement of the pylons? Is it possible for the construction workers to place the pylons 1 foot to the right of the white line allowing the cyclist safe passage?
