And the complete lack of any crossing at Spadina and Glen

Honestly, these need more than just lines, but now I'm making it about me....lol. Crossings that could be improved with only lines I really hope would not get much resistance from staff...I know there is some small cost to it, but no engineering is required, nor any change to the legal status.
I actually have experienced Spadina before, but I completely forgot about that. I think I ended up crossing the center island before figuring out the proper way to do it.
A few that come to mind (I'm 90% sure these are all unpainted, but I'm using Google maps to double-check so it's possible some are now if it's outdated)
- Queen St and Church St
- Duke St and Breithaupt
- All of the David St intersections south of Jubilee (Technically a residential area, but also a lot of foot traffic from the park)
- Water St S & Jubilee (Apparently this intersection exists twice, but I mean the one with the crossing)
- Water St S & Water St S (I just experienced this one today. The one curb cut is clearly for pedestrians, the other is maybe for a driveway? Not sure what to make of this one...)
- Heins Ave and Jubilee (So I guess just most of the Jubilee intersecting roads. Against residential, but park adjacent, lots of pedestrians and cars)
