Toronto Star
Me being me, I have already found fault with the system and suggested that:
(1) "M9C 2A6" to "M9C 1C9" offers the same straight-line route for Direct, Safe, and Safer, whereas providing 3 distinct alternatives might be a better service.
(2) "L4J 2Y8" to "M9C 2A6" says it rises 304 meters, whereas it is a journey towards the lake, that is, downhill, and there isn't 1,000 ft difference in altitude anyway. I suspect that they sum all the positive legs of the route and ignore the negative legs.

Since it is a bicycle route, wouldn't two legs take care of the problem?ChrisGreaves wrote:Toronto Star
