TORONTO -- Bottlenecks caused by public transit vehicles, parking and construction are the top complaints filed so far by Toronto residents taking part in an online survey on downtown traffic.
The survey is part of a city-led study that aims to help find solutions to the ongoing congestion in the area between Bathurst and Jarvis streets south of Queen Street.
The city held a drop-in event at Metro Hall today to drum up participation for the study and encourage feedback on traffic issues.
The survey went live Friday and will stay active until April 10.
It asks residents to weigh in on eight types of traffic problems, including cars and transit vehicles jockeying for space.
Organizers can view the responses in real time but the final results won't be released until October.
Transportation has been in the spotlight this week, with Premier Kathleen Wynne calling for a dedicated revenue stream to fund transit and other infrastructure projects such as road and bridge repairs.
Finance Minister Charles Sousa suggested Tuesday the province could raise money by allowing drivers who are alone in their cars to pay a premium to use high-occupancy-vehicle lanes.
