Take a drive around the city and you’ll realize that the number one driver of congestion in Toronto is construction. The lack of coordinated planning around construction in Toronto is the biggest culprit. Couple that with a transit system that is chronically breaking down and offering reduced service and you have a formula for the extreme traffic slowdowns we witness daily.
As a driver, pedestrian and cyclist, I can say that riding my bike reduces the number of potential cars on the road and makes for a healthier commute. We should be promoting both factors. And let’s instead invest money in speeding up construction projects, not creating more inefficiencies by tearing up existing lanes that provide alternate transportation options and ensuring they are safe for our citizens.
Show some humanity, ingenuity, decency and true problem solving skills. Be a builder not a breaker. That’s what makes for a true community builder and leader who governs for the betterment of society.
