Everyone should look at the south-west corner where you will see an 5'-3 wide sidewalk >: >: being install compare to the 8 foot one was there before. Backs up SOS claim from day one about the city. How busy is this concer in the first place?
I was royal >: >: >: tick off with this when I say the curb former on site Sat and where the curb was going to be.
It falls under city guideline for wheelchairs.
As of last night, they were pouring concrete to hold the tracks sleepers in place and were to pour the top coat between the track today.
You can walk faster from Deer Park the last TTC stop before Yonge than wait on the bus to get to Yonge. I have even done this from Avenue Rd.
I waited 20 minutes for a westbound bus last night at St Clair west station and they was a crowd standing there when I got there at 6:20pm. The bus took 10 minutes to get to Yonge after I got off it at Deer Park and there were 7 buses behind it when it hit Yonge. A hugh crowd of over 20 riders were waiting for an eastbound bus when I got to Yonge. They got pickup by the 4 bus following the bus the bus I was on, some 20 minutes later as the ones in front of it were pack full. It was almost pack forcing some of the other riders to wait for the next one.The last one only had 4 riders on it.
They were diging up the 2 south corners. They were also digging a trench across the eastbound road lanes forecing the traffic onto the tracks on the westside to dig up existing cables and replace them with new ones.
If TTC wins this court action:rollin , it will full steam ahead for the tracks. The city is now procceding with the replacing the existing southside sidewalk that is up to 55 St Clair so far.
Not sure what Toronto Hydro plans are for replacing thoses existing streetpoles with underground ones like the rest of the area is so far. Hydro could dig a trench where the new sidewalk is going first and then replace the pole. They have already done this along most of phase one todate.
