Sure, but under those circumstances stopping cars from blocking intersections helps immensely and it's not just along King St. Spadina also.
That is a symptom of the bigger problem.

No doubt but under the circumstances it helps. It'll take years if not decades. Look at the Gardiner repairs. Just one lane blocked causes huge problems already.

Don't be mean.
DoFo will fix the Gardiner right after the Eglington LRT opens.

It's the sum of all parts.

-Lane reductions due to dedicated bike and transit lanes without adding more lanes.
-People starting to cross at an intersection after the countdown starts is actually illegal and adds to congestion.
-Uncoordinated construction projects between wards that are close together creates a traffic mess in the area.
-Companies forcing people who can work from home to commute into the office adds to congestion.

A few traffic coordinators in select locations doesn't address the overall problems is all I'm saying.

Does it help a bit in those specific locations, sure, but it's a huge city and traffic congestion is everywhere.

It wouldn't but it would explain why your hearing is off.


Uhhhh. You want to deport Dofo because you disagree politically with him. Despite the fact he was born in Canada. Isn't that even more lovely. I'm surprised you didn't find a way to include some genocide in your reply, Just a silly Trump pic because TDS. 🤦‍♂️
Unlike you I don't need to say the words out loud when I read, so no, a Qtip wouldn't help.

DoFo should go live in MaGa land to live with people who think the same.
Or he should be on trial for cheating Ontario.

An argument could be made cars are a hinderance to a bike network.
Particularly with the the proliferation of food deliveries on motorized bikes.
Once upon a time food deliveries were in cars.
Most driving downtown should be taking public transit ... or walking or cycling.

Well give yourself a pat on the back for not denying the day drinking. I mean you, didn't admit to it but not denying it is a small triumph. And still no genocide talk, I think you might be starting to grow up a little. Fingers crossed here.

When it come to Premiers, Doug Ford is 'the best there is, the best there was, and the best there ever will be' The Dougler ain't going no where. And neither are you, on you bike. :ROFLMAO:
DoFo is the second least popular premiere in Canada and the only one under investigation by the RCMP.
Biggest deficit, most corrupt and most bought out.

Its hard to say which was the shittiest, Ontario Place, Greenbelt, the Science Centre or just giving Ontario assets away to americans.

Those electric bikes have taken over bike lanes and are a hazard. That's not what bike lanes were intended for. They should be licensed like cars and drive in car lanes based on their speed capability.
In Finland, often a model for cycling infrastructure, there are dedicated roads for bikes. For the most part, they didn't just carve out lanes for that and paint funny lines on the road expecting those to keep people safe.

Toronto council wants everyone to live in downtown shoe boxes in the sky and assumes anyone who matters lives within a 3km radius of city hall. If you have to commute into the city, well, you're on your own.

You need a QTip. When did I say everyone? I named one person. Be honest, are you day drinking? :ROFLMAO:

I wonder if John Tory's wife filed for divorce after his affair, or if they're still together :unsure:

I liked Tory, and he's the only one I would vote for if he were running against Chow. Other than that, Chow would get my vote.
Tory will leave a legacy similar to the crackhead, minus the global embarrassment.

Rob Ford left us with a $10 billion, 3 stop subway.
John Tory left us with $1.8 billion debt for a GO line that won't be built.
DoFo handed Metrolinx over to a Russian oligarch and now its a money pit that can't build anything and a $24 billion bill for his 'Ontario line'.

While the David Miller transit city plan wouldn't have cost the city anything and covered more area with more useful transit.
