Scarborough is indeed in a state of transit poverty. they must be really sick of a long line of Toronto Mayors doing next to nothing about it.

The 80 Queensway is such an under Invested route. There's commercial, industrial, and residential all along the route. It connects with a lot of N/S cross routes, a variety of routes at Sherway Gardens, and the Queen tram at Humber Loop.

Yet service is always slow in traffic, and infrequent off peak. I used to take the 80-15 to get to work but catching the 15 is such a gamble. Tonight I thought I could make it and got lucky that I could retreat to the 80 as the 15 blew by.

From #TTCRiders:

Only one project has been completed: red bus lanes on Eglinton East, Kingston, and Morningside. A bus lane on Jane Street was supposed to be installed in 2021...
