Thank you Shawn for writing this article!!

At consultations I can’t believe drivers had the gal to say they “take transit” and it isn’t that bad as if their anecdotal evidence proves wrong long term data collected by the TTC and that the locals have called it the “Sufferin’ Dufferin” for YEARS.
The Dufferin & Bathurst bus priority lanes are the only way to break the transit death spiral in Toronto. They must happen & the mayor needs to make sure they’re a raging success. Mission critical as future fixes rely on their success. My column this week. Pls read n share.
Shawn Micallef: How this transit plan could finally make ‘Sufferin’ Dufferin’ a thing of the past
There are 'RapidTO' plans to create transit priority lanes on Dufferin as well as Bathurst streets.

Two cities with approximately the same population (200 k).

Both in very car-dominated countries (Canada and Italy).

Two very different philosophies of traffic management.

I wish I had discovered the Paris metro stations and transfer maps created by @albertguillaumes.cat before my Paris trip. These maps are especially helpful when navigating complex underground spaces with accessibility needs. stations.albertguillaumes.cat
