Bike Share Now Available at the Toronto Islands

New this summer! Residents and visitors can explore the Toronto Islands this summer in a fun, convenient and sustainable way with Bike Share Toronto! Rent bikes in four convenient locations: Ward’s Island, Centre Island, and Hanlan’s Point ferry docks and Hanlan’s Beach, and travel one of the most beautiful parks in the City!

Bike Share Toronto has expanded its network to the Toronto Islands – one of the city’s most iconic destinations and the single most requested location in the system. This expansion makes it easier for residents and visitors to explore the Islands in a fun, convenient and sustainable way. This pilot program has launched with four stations and 250 bicycles at the following convenient locations: Ward’s Island, Centre Island and Hanlan’s Point ferry docks as well as at Hanlan’s Beach. 

Q: Can I use a mainland Bike Share bike on the island, or take an Island Bike back to the city?   

A: No, the systems are separate to ensure bike availability. Island Bikes must be docked at island stations and mainland bikes must be docked at mainland stations before using the ferry/water taxi.  

There’s an "Island Bike" decal on the bike (usually between the handlebars) that identifies it as an "Island Bike" which must stay on the island. Docking one on the mainland may result in a relocation fee (up to $400) being charged to your account. Help keep the Island Bikes available for everyone!   

Q: Is the pricing different for Island Bikes? Do I need a special pass?   

A: No difference! Standard Bike Share Toronto pricing applies. You can use your existing membership or purchase passes like Pay As You Go or the Day Pass via the app.

It has been a tremendously busy summer! Between Pride and FIFA on one end, the final Toronto and East York Community Council and City Council of the term later this month on the other, and the ongoing Church Street Pedestrianization Pilot, my team and I have been working hard to continue delivering results. Despite the stress, despite the heat, and especially despite the province’s ongoing work to make the City of Toronto miserable, for this final proper Councillor Update of the term, I want to provide positive vibes only.

The celebration on Church Street continues! The Church Street Pedestrianization has officially launched, with the Church-Wellesley Village Business Improvement Area (BIA) and my team installed patios and more seating on Church Street post-Pride to make it an even better place to visit. The pedestrianization lasts until August 21, so come on out and experience The Village like never before, enjoy the beautiful weather, and help me advocate for more pedestrianization across the City and to make this pilot permanent!
