      That would require Toronto having vaguely proportional public transit and a certain drug dealer can’t even handle a couple out-of-the-way bike lanes.

    This is awesome! I think people would start riots in the states if they “lost” a bridge to pedestrians.

    To be fair to them buses round that way can get really jammed up - and I’d think they’d move more people than bikes.

    But it sounds like they’re just too heavy for the bridge so I don’t see what they think is going to happen by protesting.

    They just need to build a new bridge or un-gII list it and rip it down and rebuild, or stump up the cash themselves if they want to keep the fancy looking one that’s impractical for buses.

      Vehicles are currently too heavy for the bridge because it is old and was bombed by the IRA three times. When much-delayed repairs are completed, it will re-open to vehicles.

    I hope that anchorage is getting renovated and doesn’t just normally look like those big green blocks.

    20,000 vehicles isn’t a lot. One lane both ways that’s a vehicle every 20 or so seconds.
