By "pulled up" I thought you meant they were removed and the project cancelled.

One thing I find funny is if overhead wires are so ugly, why do so many cities want to preserve their trolley buses?

Wonder why the street is just Hwy. 8 and not Queenston Rd.? It is a continuation.

That was true even before Metro was amalgamated, and would likely still be true today even if the amalgamation never happened. Unlike Peel, Metro had DT Toronto as a collective core.

Way too wide? That's a fairly typical urban street width.

Through the clouds in Hamilton: Couldn't get the camera to focus for the full totality zoomed-in though.

I can say that ridership is high. A packed 502 Zum Main bus on Monday April 8 at about 10:30 AM:

Especially along Yonge north of Steeles. What an eyesore with poles on both sides and in stark contrast to going south of Steeles.

I'm amazed the land at 427 and Rexdale was never developed.

It's the fact of there being a sign at all in some cases.

I was referring to sign placement. Even the single occupant washroom at the YRT terminal at Pioneer Village has an exit sign in it!

Most people in Toronto say route names like "the Bathurst bus" or "the Queen streetcar" actually. Although that's more rare in the 905 though.

Read my post again. This is something new and goes beyond rational fire code regulations.

I was referring to the Orangeville bypass itself.
