TTC what’s up ?! Trying to take transit downtown on a Saturday night in December with -5C 🥶 and planned track work + shuttle buses?! No wonder people drive in the city even if it’s gridlocked.

Why do people drive?

TTC bus - wait 20 minutes for it to arrive and another 23 minutes for it to move?!

I was spoiled by connections this morning to travel 8km which would take me 30 minutes if roads clear & safe #torontottc

S N I R T in the winter

F L O O D in the summer

Sidewalks tight against them Dundas St W 🚘 S P E E D W AY generates a fear of that proximity then hit with water & slush while walking!

Then inspired by @ecwpress.bsky.social Let’s Go Exploring title I found in QueenBooks 📚 I kept walking to The Beach & had an impromptu picnic!

The Dufferin Express Bus was smokin’ if all major bus routes were like this - I’d love taking the bus!!

Now let dedicate space to Streetcars! 501 Queen from Woodbine to Dufferin was an snail pace 1.5 hrs
