Bay And Bloor Intersection Toronto, Ontario - TorontoThe scramble intersection at Bay and Bloor is great during the day and accommodates all of the pedestrians working, shopping and dining out in that area. However, the scramble feature is running 24 hours, and seems to cause unnecessary congestion later on in the evening when the stores and work places have closed. I would think that it would be better to scramble during the day, and switch to regular lighting throughout the night (perhaps 10pm on?).

235 Carlton St Toronto, ON - TorontoThere is only one ring here in front of the stores where I shop, and it is often full.

treacherous crosswalk ArchivedJarvis & Lakeshore Toronto, Ontario - TorontoThe west portion of the north-south crosswalk at Jarvis & Lakeshore is extremely dangerous for older or disabled persons. The crosswalk is bumpy almost beyond description - wavy up and down. Sure to throw someone for a loop eventually,

Concord Avenue Hallam To Northumberland Toronto, ON - TorontoUgly blue graffiti tags on these poles every one on the entire block, on other streets too...
-
45 Bay St Toronto, ON - TorontoFor over 5 months the sewer grate at the northwest corner of bay and lakeshore has been recessed. I have seen countless pylons and construction cones that have been placed in it destroyed by cars, and large amounts of debris filling the crater. Virtually impossible to cycle near the curb because of it. Its a shame and a terrible safety issue. Pathetic that our city has taken so long to fix this.

No Sidewalk Archived97-149 Queens Quay E Toronto, ON - TorontoIn front of the Redpath Sugar Refinary and also to the west next to it, there is no sidewalk on the south side of Queen's Quay. This makes walking from Harbourfront to Sugar Beach very difficult, as all you have to walk on is the ground between the road and the buildings and it is covered with large pieces of gravel. It seems a shame to have such a great area as Sugar Beach, but with such a difficult walk to get there from Yonge street. Not a good impression for tourists either. Can something be done to fix this?

traffic at intesection Archived4-6 Carlaw Ave Toronto, ON - Torontothis intersection is in DIRE need of an advanced left turn lane from carlaw nothbound heading west on lakeshore. the green lights are green for only a few seconds and there is a tendancy for lots of trucks to back up making this turn take almost 5 or 6 lights before making a legal left turn.

police abuse of position ArchivedRobertson Crescent Toronto, ON - TorontoWell, your article on illegal actions by the police brought to mind a very similar one down at the harbour by the police marine station. Not only have they been parking illegally on the street and the sidewalk with both police vehicles and civilian vehicles (I’m assuming they are the personal vehicles of the police), they also park in front of a fire hydrant, none are ever ticketed. The excuse of it is an emergency doesn’t wash in front of the fire hydrant because sometimes it is the same vehicle sitting there for days. I have been walking past here 2 or 3 times a week for the past 10 years so I have a pretty good picture of how the police abuse there privileged position. There is a gated parking lot beside the police station that is often not full. The pictures were taken a couple of years ago but nothing has changed since then.

Traffic lights Archived158 College St Toronto, ON - TorontoHave you ever tried to cross University Avenue at College Street? If not, you have 26 seconds to scurry across. I can run 10 km in an hour, but I can barely make it across University at this intersection before the lights turn red. Yes there is an island in the middle of University Avenue, and yes I could run across but let's not forget that Toronto's major hospitals are located just south of this intersection on both sides of University Avenue and many seniors and individuals with mobility issues are trying to cross this street. The last thing I want to do is to run into any of these individuals. In contrast, you get 50 seconds to cross College Street at this intersection - so why such a discrepancy?
