I can't imagine Ford supporting any more pedestrian-priority crossings.
He won't. Perhaps why Bloor & Bay was "rushed" onto the scene this week.
Wouldn't a pedestrian crossing be something that's handled at a community council leverl?I can't imagine Ford supporting any more pedestrian-priority crossings.
Queen and Spadina are probably considered more important routes than Dundas, though, so you've still got a point. I don't think they want to do anything that could potentially make Queen, King or Spadina run slower or less reliably.
I think Yonge & Eglinton would be a cool spot for one of these.Yonge & Front, too.

How about Front/York/University? People spill out onto the roads here at rush hour as they come and go from the York West Teamway. Also many people have to go through two crossing stages to get where they want to go here. This may be less of a problem when the York East Teamway is built, but who knows when that will be.

I just like how when the Yonge & Dundas crossing was installed, CityTV seemed to take the greater part of the week trying to educate Toronto on how to use a diagonal crossing. Seriously, it's as if they think we're still fearful of fire.
Just wait until POP gets put on all TC routes, now THAT should be a good education. Aside from those who ride the Queen streetcar, most people in Toronto have never had experience with POP.
Judging by some of the rude comments I've had after entering through the back door of a 501 ALRV, even some of those that ride the Queen streetcar don't understand POP. Though how many years has it been since anyone has seen a ticket inspector on that route.Aside from those who ride the Queen streetcar, most people in Toronto have never had experience with POP.
