    Greenwood Ave At Dundas St East Toronto, ON M4L, Canada - Toronto
    Tripping hazard at entrance to park être. About 1 inch higher than brick. Seems to be some sort of screw. But definitely a hazard.
  • 1 Bertmount Ave Toronto, Ontario - Toronto

    'Hoop and Post' Bicycle lock-up is so loose you can lift it out of the side walk easily.

    I have no camera, so I took a Print Screen of the location in Google Maps, Street View and photo edited the image to indicate the Hoop and Post in question with a big red circle - http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-hax2Uvft3VQ/UYiai9MbaiI/AAAAAAAAErY/-Xi1yu2wI1Y/s1600/Hoop_and_Post_beside_Stratengers_patio_is_easy_to_pull_out_of_the_sidewalk.jpg

  • Carlaw Sinkhole Acknowledged
    388 Carlaw Avenue Toronto, ON - Toronto
    this has been filled about 5 times. Obviously a major leak underground.
  • 4-6 Carlaw Ave Toronto, ON - Toronto
    this intersection is in DIRE need of an advanced left turn lane from carlaw nothbound heading west on lakeshore. the green lights are green for only a few seconds and there is a tendancy for lots of trucks to back up making this turn take almost 5 or 6 lights before making a legal left turn.
  • 1005 Queen Street East Toronto, ON - Toronto
    This condo development began 2 1/2 years ago but has sat unfinished for over a year now. Work on it ended abruptly and now it sits as an eyesore, rotting away in the neighbourhood.
  • 10 Thackeray Street Toronto, ON - Toronto
    Thackeray St. runs along the rear of 388 Carlaw Ave. It is a well used artery required to gain access to a number of thriving businesses in the area. The potholes are unbelievable, and can generously be described as a "devastated minefield." The city occasionally dumps some gravel in the worst of the potholes, but this "fix" only last a couple weeks at best. The street is not paved. Try driving along this street and you will see what I mean. Thanks for your attention. You provide a great service for this city's population!

    1160 Queen Street East Toronto, ON M4M 1L3, Canada - Toronto
    Streetcars stop 7m from stop line at Jones on Queen eastbound. This blocks the street south and stops cars turning right onto queen from making a left turn. This is deliberate so as to accommodate buses turning west onto Queen from Jones. The problem is that the streetcars do it even if no buses are coming. The drivers are rude and non responsive to reason. This practice is illegal and must stop.
  • 16 Munro St Toronto, ON - Toronto
    Count down light, then back to walk signal, happens mostly at night. Dundas and Munro Street
  • 500 Commissioners Street - Toronto
    they did fix the lights between cherry and carlaw. But there are still 11 burned out lights between carlaw and leslie on commissioners street. the irony is that it is the section of commissioners where the TORONTO HYDRO DEPOT is. 500 commissioners. these 11 lights have been out for more than 3 months now between carlaw and lesie on commissions starting at Toronto Hydro and ending at Canada Post.
  • 1151 Queen St E Toronto, Ontario - Toronto
    It is reported on the Facebook Page I am a Lesievillian that every year for many years the 7-11 in Leslieville plows/shovels snow onto the sidewalk contravening the city by-law. It's time they were taught a lesson with a big fine.

    Graffiti on Grey Canada post box
  • 829 Lake Shore Boulevard East Toronto, Ontario - Toronto
    Countless people travel east on Lakeshore, and then use the left turn lane (and advanced green) at Carlaw to make a u-turn and head west on Lakeshore. I got a ticket for doing this, because there is a bylaw that you can't do u-turns over a railroad track (even if it is never used), and the police officer explained how dangerous it is to do. As he was giving me the ticket, he mentioned that he'd been sitting there all morning giving people tickets. I noted that I would never make a u-turn if there was a no u-turn sign, and that if it is so dangerous to do, it would seem to make more sense if there were a no u-turn sign to hopefully prevent people from doing it, rather than ticket them after the fact. I have not made that u-turn since, but every time I'm sitting on Carlaw waiting to turn west onto Lakeshore, there are a number of cars still making this harrowing and 'extremely dangerous' left turn. Why would the city choose to not put a no u-turn sign there, and instead, pay an officer to sit there and give people tickets instead? I admit, I haven't done it since, but I wouldn't have even done it in the first place if there was a sign. And if it's so dangerous to do, it seems a little risky to wait until someone is caught doing it before penalizing them and 'teaching them a lesson'. Put a sign up....
