I'll do the broad look at the Transportation Services budget here, and I or others can parcel out items to the appropriate threads as partial cross-posts.
Comment: Good on cutting the windrow service, like the leaf collection, it was a service not delivered to all communities or even most communities equitable, nor was that likely to change.

Despite the Gardiner/DVP upload, there is insufficient money to maintain roads at current levels, and they are set to deteriorate over the next decade:

Some things of note below: Some money has fallen from the sky for King Street; look at the 2025 number for Neighbourhood improvements; holy @#$# that's a lot for the West Toronto Railpath,
Next: (comment) - @sunnyraytoronto will make note of the Beecroft Extension funding times; looks like John Street has slipped back to 2025 and many future years..... that is really inefficient.
Some of our Junctionites or those adjacent such as @ProjectEnd, @AlbertC and @smably will note the Dundas/Dupont/Annette project starting in 2025
@mburrrrr will note the Lower Yonge improvements, and I suspect @DSC will follow these as well.
@interchange42 will believe in the long promised Legion Road underpass after it opens and not a day sooner.
Raising my own eyebrow at the very marginal sums allocated to YongeTOmorrow.

Below are projects for which Transportation currently lacks money to deliver.
