The LRT has been making changes to bus routes in Toronto and sometimes if feels like they are canceling routes without notification! A local Don Mills resident had this to say:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“The loss of Lawrence bus 54 between Don Mills & Leslie. It is amazing to me that having put up with the construction for all these years, my regular TTC trip will be longer and more complicated than before. I used to walk a relatively short distance to a friendly bus stop (Donway W and Lawrence), wait for a bus with a small group of people, hop on a bus, get off at a stop just short of Yonge St and walk up to my destination. Now I will have to walk twice as far to a bus stop that is already overcrowded and dangerous when a bunch of school kids are jostling about, ride down to Eglinton, change to the LRT, ride it all the way to Yonge, negotiate the station, then walk up Yonge. I suspect it will add time to my journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is an important survey. One implication of the new Eglinton LRT is that we lose the section of Lawrence 54 between Don Mills and Leslie. That means a much longer walk to a bus stop for many, and probably longer trip times to Yonge\/Eglinton. survey.forumresearch.com\/SE\/1\/TCL5\/<\/a>.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I hope you can spare a moment to fill out the online survey if you are a TTC rider so that we can hopefully bring back the routes that matter to our local residents!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thank you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
