The Toronto Star is reporting - once again t he St. Clair West streetcar right-of-way once again is mired in controversy as TTC officials yesterday threw cold water on a report suggesting it's unsafe for fire trucks.i

points mentioned are..

- Trucks risk smashing their mirrors into the streetcar power traction poles

- damaging tires or equipment on curbs, the pavement being about 6 metres wide rather than the usual 9 metres

- Fire trucks have difficulty maneuvering around the center poles to bypass streetcars
