	TORONTO TRANSIT COMMISSION
		Danforth Avenue is approximately level with the main entrance of Variety Village, but is not used for bus service because the majority of transit customers reside to the north of Danforth Avenue, and service on Highview Avenue provides better access for most customers.
		The routing via Pinegrove Avenue is not presently operationally feasible, as the turn from northbound Birchmount Road to eastbound Pinegrove Avenue requires that buses cross into the westbound lane of Pinegrove Avenue.
		New eastbound service would be provided on Danforth Avenue, between Birchmount Avenue and Kingston Road, and customers travelling to and from Variety Village would have direct, convenient service to the south side of Danforth Avenue, just outside the main entrance to Variety Village.
