I wonder how they measure this congestion? Because I find it hard to believe that Toronto is 3rd worst in the world compared to everyone else. To me it seems like downtown Toronto and parts of the highway system are congested during rush hour and then things get better when you move out of those areas. Don't go downtown and don't use the highways too much during rush hour and you'll be fine mostly.

@redstone5062 Seriously I think a fair amount of Toronto's traffic problems could be reduced with just a few simply adjustments like getting traffic lights to be timed properly so that they work in synchronization to keep traffic moving on major roads or if we're talking downtown perhaps implement more scramble crossings so that pedestrians and vehicle traffic is completely separated so that people cross in all directions on one light and then one light for east-west traffic and one light for north-south traffic. If we're talking 401 I think the easiest way to try and improve traffic flow is to use the express lanes for their intended purpose and reducing the number of entrances/exits to those expressways to be only a few so that traffic that simply wants to travel through Toronto can flow more freely. Just like the DVP close to where it connects to the Gardiner, traffic often builds up in that area when you have too many cars trying to get onto the highway and merging with existing highway traffic. These are just a few solutions that can be implemented fairly easily that can significantly reduce traffic congestion within the city that our politicians and city planners don't seem to ever want to try.
