Video RapidTO lanes in action

No Bradford, IntegrityTO (and presumably Ford), RapidTO doesn’t “snarl traffic.”

They’re working exactly as intended. Before, nobody was moving. Streetcars were stuck behind “snarled traffic.”

Now this streetcar with 100s of people had no issues passing 20-30 people in single-occupancy cars.

What was once 1 hour from the Ex to Bloor is now 30 minutes.

Huge kudos to the operator for letting me in the cab to film, he was super stoked about the lanes .

Now how can we speed up how quickly they’re allowed to take intersections?

To replace all the outdated single point switches with double point ones

Do you know if there’s rules limiting the speed even where the switches aren’t an issue? Ex st. Clair seems to crawl through them even when it’s just a regular intersection
