Recently, though, I hear there were some improvements around that trail. Centreline markers, for one (at least for a part of it)
Sorry to hear that its annoying...the section you speak of is that little rise by Royal York...the only problem i had there at one time was when I came around that last bend and found that some local school had sent their phys ed class jogging down the bike path straight into the cyclists...a stupid thing to do as the Eglinton path has seperate paths for bikes and people
Intersections are just a part of life in the big city, at least most have traffic lights to keep us safe...at least we're fortunate to have a dedicated bike path that joins the mimico and humber trails
