How is your King Street Commute? It seems that the pilot study of deterring vehicles from utilizing King Street as a primary commuting artery has, by all accounts, succeeded beyond almost everyone’s expectations. The recent review (see link below) states that streetcar ridership is up by 16% to more than 84,000 per day, and commuting […]
Can 40,000 daily commuters be wrong?
