Though the DRL is many years and the route is not determined yet away I doubt that it will mean the end of surface transit on either King or Queen. Subways do not have many stations and much of the traffic on King and Queen is local. The discussion of ROWs should not be constrained by the fact that "one day" the ROW MIGHT be superfluous. Frankly, the first and cheapest things would be to look carefully at the traffic signals, the blocking of intersections and to enforce the existing no parking or stopping by-laws on both King and Queen so that transit and other vehicles were not constantly blocked from using the full width of the road.A King ROW isn't that smart, the streetcar service will likely end once the DRL comes online. I support a queen ROW though, that is unlikely to end service.
