TTC to present route options for western waterfront streetcar

I did not attend this meeting, nor do I have any information about where they wound up from discussions, but I am ever hopefull that this plan becomes a reality. While there are several street car options from the Roncey area, the King and Queen cars are a mode of transportation that apparently cannot be relied apon. This is not to say that they they shut down, but commonly they are held up from traffic congestion along those streets and can wind up varrying arrival times for commuters sometimes between 20 - 30 minutes later than they would have expected. To have a discussion about an additional transportation line that would be extended to Roncey, is like a dream, considering we already have so many options.
My fingers are crossed. Very hopeful. |
