The city has decided to close a section of the road that the replacement buses would otherwise use while the LRT between Tunney’s Pasture and Rideau is closed for two weeks for ‘corrective maintenance work’.
Does anyone within the senior ranks of city management even think about the impact on traffic flow of what, on the surface may appear to be two independent decisions, but are in fact co-dependent? Seriously!
