400 people on buses & 100 people in cars in 5 minute timelapse👇🏾The red #RapidTO #TTC bus lane on Kennedy is doing exactly what it's meant to do. This is the type of project we need to do more of to keep #Scarborough moving! Some benefits... [1/4]
-Scarborough RT replacement buses aren't stuck in traffic -more than 1 bus per minute -bus lane is moving 3-4x as many people as the car lane -cars flowing at reasonable speed -safer and calmer traffic flow in 1 lane (less merging, aggressive driving, racing) [2/4]
-faster, more reliable buses = fewer people choosing to drive = fewer cars on the road = better for everyone -important and effective short-term measure to help keep transit riders moving after the RT shutdown -very efficiently using limited road space to move more people [3/4]
