GGH Transportation and Growth Plan

Part of the issue in KW (or, the tri-city) is that our street layout isn't transit friendly. Compared to places like Hamilton or Toronto or anything in Peel region that have a grid. It makes having good fast reliable transit difficult.

This is definitely not true. Cities in Europe and Asia are full of streets that don't use a grid, but their transit systems feel as if they're from the distant future in comparison to ours. Our issue is that Grand River Transit just sucks.

Edit: Didn't realize this post was from 2021 haha...I just noticed this thread got bumped up to the top.
