@cbctoronto: Heads up transit riders — about 10 months of track work construction is coming to the King streetcar line west of Spadina. It's the second time in two years that this particular stretch of transit has been impacted. As Mercedes Gaztambide explains, it's a frustration for many living in the area. #toronto #ttc #transit #kingstreet #streetcar #cbcnews

What kills me is that they make no improvements when they do these Renos… like no signal priority no mechanism to speed up intersections. What a waste of

Have people just forgotten the YEARS of track work they also did around King and Roncy during the pandemic? It’s pretty much been a nightmare for 6-7 years for anyone who takes the King streetcar west of Bathurst.

Why would they do this for the winter ? That’s when people who walk/bike can’t do it due to weather and need the ttc. This will only make things harder.

What I hate is when you don’t know and then they go the opposite direction and say there stopping and not going further. Mind you you just paid. Listen if anyone takes 504 just make it free cause these drives are quick to stop and detour or tells there not going further. wtf so what am I paying for.

They spent $25 million to paint roads red, to make commuting faster. 1. We do not have enough TTC vehicles to support this dream, 2. 72% of all Toronto workers commute into the city from other cities. Aka, GO (of they are lucky) and car. . No thought. Toronto is progressively reactive and not proactive.

If anyone still relies on a streetcar to get to work, they have must a great boss and an endless amount of hope. God bless that optimism

They tore up the tracks at broad view and king 2 yrs ago and it’s never been frequent service past Distillery District since! I’ve waited over 20 mins for a 504 going to broad view. This happens so often I stopped using the 504 to get anywhere past Distillery District since
