Along with all the valid comments listed so far, another stands out:
With Josyf Cardinal Slipyj located right at Beaver Bend and West Deane Park, the street is busy enough during morning drop-offs and afternoon pick-ups with cars flanking both sides of Beaver Bend, as well as school buses lining up along West Deane--I can't imagine the logistics of TTC buses coming through the area during the school year on a spring day, let alone the winter months when the roads are narrower with heavy snow fall and snow banks.
This reroute plan makes absolutely no sense.
Beaver Bend and West Deane Park Dr. are too narrow to comfortably accommodate school buses AND TTC buses. It's already hard enough to leave the neighbourhood in the morning via both ends of West Deane Park Drive due to the parents coming in and out of the neighbourhood to drop off kids at Cardinal Slipyj. Especially when making a left turn from Beaver Bend onto the East Mall, when school buses come barreling around the corner to drop kids off – there's precious little room for both a car and a bus. I always feel like my car is going to get hit at the stop. What's going to happen if they add TTC buses into the mix? A TTC bus trying to make a left out (with a line of parents behind it, blocking the Rabbit Lane intersection) while a school bus is trying to get in is going to be dangerous.
The clearing of sidewalks in winter is going to require a much better service commitment. No point in trying to offer accessibility if the sidewalks remain blocked – the four corners at Sedgebrook and Beaver Bend are usually left uncleared and impassible. Needs to be better thought out.
I personally rollerblade on beaverbend most days, me and my friends play roller hockey with a net outside on the street and having buses constantly passing us will not only make our games less enjoyable but also unsafe.
