Saskatoon might ban future Tim Hortons drive thrus

Saskatoon could see Tim Hortons without drive thrus in the future.

Huffington Post reports the city might ban future construction of Timmies drive thrus because of the problems they cause.

The solution was brought up by a city councillor and now a report’s being done to see if it’s possible.

Transportation manager Angela Gardiner says this is a national problem. She says the drive thru demand at Tim Hortons is higher than other fast food restaurants.

Saskatoon drivers are suffering traffic problems from this demand. People were doing illegal turns to get to one restaurant and lining up across a major intersection to get their fix.
