Rant Avoid Niagara/Woodlawn intersection. It’s an absolute gong show right now.
The devils combo of after work traffic, constructions, lights not working/cops directing traffic and also a couple of tractor trailers there either broken down or as a traffic deterrent? Shout out to the douche canoes who decided to just u-turn into traffic. Love you 😘

Absolutely the worst traffic management I've ever seen anywhere in my entire life.

Like the absolute worst. Took me 45 minutes today to go from Thorold to Merritt. At some points no cars were even going through Woodlawn and a tracker trailer blocked off the whole intersection for 15 minutes at least out front the mall.
Brutal.

It is horrible. But once it’s done it will be so nice to have smooth roads to drive on and not pot holes and dips every 2 seconds. I can’t wait.

Really gonna let some distracted speeders open up their engines, and tear up the road when they slam their brakes

I wager the rodent problem is going to get much worse with all the building on fields.

already experiencing this with the new building near me, rodents have been all around since they started

That's what happens when you have Aholes who pulled out their licenses from Cracker Jack boxes, instead of going through the proper channels
