RapidTO: Master Thread

The RapidTO Bathurst website issued the following update. If you're in the area, it would be great if you can report on the installation. đŸ˜‰

April Update: Work on Bathurst Street’s priority streetcar lanes between Nassau Street and Bathurst Station is expected to resume the week of April 13, weather permitting, followed by traffic signal timing adjustments across the full project area. Once red paint, pavement markings and signage are installed, this segment will be fully operational and enforceable. View the News & Updates accordion for more details.

I can't believe it took 50+ years to drum up the political courage to align some traffic lights and put some red paint on the road to give public transit priority. Even considering that one public trasit vehicle carries 20 to 200 times more people.

That's just mind boggling.
 
Great! Now once they finish painting Nassau to Bloor, they can get started once more on the flaked off section from Lakeshore to Dundas.....and the repeat the whole thing over again ad nauseum. I must admit, the city bureaucracy knows how to keep a job going.
 
Wonder if anyone has checked the progress of RapidTO on Dufferin given that project website suggested work would resume last Monday (April 6)?

No changes on the ground.
