Toronto’s mayoral candidates say they can fix the city’s jammed roads. The experts aren’t so sure

Those vying for Toronto’s top job may agree it’s tough to get around the city but their fixes vary.

In Saunders's picture showing how bad the King Street transit lane is affecting traffic on an early Sunday morning there are 2 cars. Perhaps if we re-opened King Street we could pump that up to 3, or possibly even 4 cars early on Sunday morning, and finally fix traffic on quiet Sunday mornings!

Take away space from cars AND make transit/biking a viable alternative. That means bike lanes, transit priority in traffic systems (Spadina streetcar is an example of what not to do). I feel these same people complaining about traffic will also complain about removal of lanes to actually make traffic flow and efficiently move people and not giant single occupant vehicles.
