General Road and Highway Discussion

[neonjoe]

So as apart of the King Street reconstruction between Sportsworld drive and the 401 they’ve added a huge centre median, which could’ve been a nice edition. Added some greenery, even trees and made the stretch into a nice looking boulevard. 

However apparently they’ve opted to merely slap down a bunch of concrete and call it a day. Absolutely baffling. Cold and hostile and the antithesis of good planning.

The road was rebuilt in a manner that its prepared for centre running LRT. Utilities were replaced and the median was designed so that it could upgraded to allow for centre running LRT without tearing the entire road out again.
