Why do get the feeling that the work will involve removing the bike lane to make room for the extra traffic lane, only to find that replacing the bike lane gets cut for 'cost reasons' before the project is complete.
Why does Qatar need an airbase in the USA? Are Qatari pilots incapable of being trained at a US airbase? Does the USA want a place to teach how to use bone saws? Does the USA want to create a bastion of sharia law? Does the USA want a handy air force willing to attack Americans?
The daily ridership of about 1500 for most of last winter is pretty impressive too. It really shows that people can and will cycle in winter if the infrastructure is there.
The former CNR right of way in Inglewood is now the Caledon Trailway, and the former CPR right of way is slated to become a trail from Streetsville to Orangeville, with possible connections all the way to Owen Sound. I guess that means it's not a total loss.
Avenue Rd from Hwy 401 to Queens Park is almost exactly 9km. The travel time difference between a trip at 40KPH vs one at 50KPH is 2 minutes and 42 seconds.
Is it worth the risk of killing someone to save less time than you will lose simply by hitting a couple of red traffic lights?
There will be a shoot through on the main output with each transition even if the output is disconnected. The off transistor turns on several nanoseconds faster than the on transistor turns off
It appears that bipolar transistors turn on faster than they turn off, so any simple totem pole output has a shoot-through issue. The higher the current capacity of the transistors, the worse the problem.
I once did an astable circuit using a 555 to create a clock for students breadboarding logic circuits. I forgot the decoupling cap, and the circuit created 3V of ringing on a 5V signal! A simple 100nF cap added to the chip power pins cleaned it right up.
Yup, you fall into the 1% of Canadians who need a truck like that. The remaining 99% are wasting gas, wasting money, and damaging roads that everyone has to pay for, even non drivers.
