Where are all the cars??? |
The 401 empty might be one of the strangest things I've ever seen

That's a great photo.
Who will win? Nature or nuclear meltdown? |
And do we still need a separate thread for TCH twinning or should we simply combine that with this one?

I remember driving in the 401 at 5pm on a weekday in the first week of April 2020 and flying along at 115-120. Crazy really looking back.
It eventually got busier again of course, but traffic stayed noticeably lighter in the GTA for probably 2 years after before really returning to normal. |
The 401 picture above reminds me of this empty 20 lane highway in Burma (shown in an old BBC Top Gear episode):

The Cape Horn interchange at Coquitlam is built so nicely. I hope that Mary Hill Bypass gets grade separated eventually.

The official slogan of the 401:

^think of the money they could have saved just making it a permanent sign.

Nothing worse than being stuck on the far left lane of the "Express" lanes configuration, during one of the usual 401 traffic jams, and having one of your kids needing to "go to the bathroom very badly, Dad!!"

I actually don't mind those Chrysler Building ripoff condos in Scarborough. They've always been a bit of a "welcome to Toronto" sign for me.
OK, you can shoot me now. :shitstorm: :runaway: |
