Single lane should be the only model for a roundabout aside from turbo roundabouts. The peanut could have worked, but not sure how much space there is with the new build. They may be able to work with the space they have with dedicated signal phases and preventing left turns on Cunard outbound.

Some good news: it may only be a safety issue with the construction process. Hopefully, more information to come. And I can tell you that our presence helps prevent this crap. Hope to see you at the public consultation.

I wouldn't say dramatic. More like an observation of what's been happening for the past few years. I would also say they're acting in conflict with legal precedent with the court ruling. IF they are fully blocking the project they should have known about for months.

Fundamentally, there is no way to do effective TSP in through gridded street layouts

I can confirm it's pretty hard to find e-bikes. There are far more scooters.

Seriously, take a deep dive into the @toronto.ca Complete Streets Guidelines. In #TorontoDanforth we are heavily car-dependent (even though we don't have to be), but a lack of political will keeps us at the status quo.
