Critics are shaking their heads over the city’s decision to give on-street bike lanes top priority as part of the snow and ice clearing program.
About 10 km of on-street bike paths previously under a Priority 2 designation for snow and ice removal will now be Priority 1.
Under the plan, a total of 27 km on-street bike lanes will become part of the road maintenance department’s first priorities this winter.

I only cycle outdoors late spring through fall, so for me personally this is not a concern. What I do do in the winter is "Tabata" intervals on my Cycleops trainer 3 times a week. And after 6 months of Tabata intervals I literally fly up hills with not a lot of effort. I highly recommend them. Brutal though, you'll feel nauseous when you first start them.
