Urban studies theorist Richard Florida believes Canadian cities should start planning out what a staggered reopening of urban centres would look like — potentially by including wider bike lanes and sidewalks to ease congestion and moving some indoor businesses outside. “We have got to redesign to reopen,” said Florida, a professor at the University of Toronto’s Rotman School of Management and School of Cities “We need to think about how we can design our infrastructure… so we feel safe on them as we get back to using them.” The Ontario government said the province may have hit the peak of the COVID-19 curve, so it’s currently looking into potential phases of reopening the economy.
