The transit mall on King Street is permanent and the City has dubbed it the King Street Transit Priority Corridor. Thus, I am proposing to split the section King Street Transit Priority Corridor from the article and create a new article of the same name. The corridor does not belong exclusively to the 504 King route; other routes using it are 503 Kingston Road, 508 Lake Shore and, starting November 25, 2019, the Downtown Express bus routes (141-145). I would gradually add more material such as a list of routes using the corridor, etc. Comments? TheTrolleyPole (talk) 00:46, 12 November 2019 (UTC)Reply
- Is there enough material and, most importantly, does it have enough independent coverage to establish sufficient notability to warrant a separate article? I.e. is it ever covered as just itself or is the coverage mainly in the context of the 504? I would err on the side of caution and move the material to the generic Toronto streetcar article until there is enough coverage of the topic in and of itself to establish independent notability. —Joeyconnick (talk) 02:12, 12 November 2019 (UTC)Reply
- Today, over ¼ of the 504 King article is about the corridor, its infrastructure and how the pilot project increased transit efficiency. Mentions of 504 (and the defunct 514) are incidental in the description of corridor efficiency. We should be adding the other routes using the corridor, but that seems awkward to do in the context of the 504 King article or the Toronto streetcar system article as bus routes will soon be involved. The new article would grow. The subject is noteworthy as other transit operators have been looking at the pilot. The section is already referenced from the transit mall article, which also links to a couple of existing transit mall articles. We already have something similar with the York University Busway article in the sense that it is about transit infrastructure. The new article would mainly be about infrastructure with a summary of the routes (streetcar and bus) using this infrastructure. TheTrolleyPole (talk) 03:15, 12 November 2019 (UTC)Reply
- It is used by the 504 King streetcar. Why do you think there are multiple streetcar and bus routes here? Secondarywaltz (talk) 03:36, 12 November 2019 (UTC)Reply
