For all of its considerable shortcomings, York Boulevard was far more high-production than anything the City has attempted since. The conversions we've seen in the last 10 years have been budget jobs, mostly high-concept concrete stamping that doesn't expand sidewalk width much if at all. (Can't recall if there there are bike lanes on James or John?)

And that's what I think many fear will come to pass: New streets, new sidewalks, new road paint, extra stoplights... and nothing significantly different except the reversal of half the traffic flow. The precedent for two-way on Main and King is pretty no-frills as it stands. It's not hard to imagine that being the yardstick for successful implementation throughout the one-way stretch as well.
