I’m not super familiar with this area, but in the few times I’ve been around this corridor, I’ve been taken aback by the traffic congestion in the area.

I see some similarities between this stretch and the Eglinton and Laird, an area I’m more familiar with. Both have a mish mash of big box stores, light industrial, and now and into the future, mid-and-high rise condos. The big difference is that one area will be adjacent to an LRT line, and the other will not.

I was in the area by car last Saturday and can confirm that the traffic is just as bad on the weekend. Godspeed to anyone who attempts to enter or leave Costco parking lot on a Saturday afternoon. This project, combined with the Cineplex proposal, will make the area brutal for traffic unless there's an increase in transit service.
