[edit] Radio mention

Someone has requested citation regarding mention of the basketweave on the radio. I can't find any traffic report transcripts online (and I doubt they exist), but I have found a few sources that mention it, including radio station websites:

• 820 CHAM
• Oldies 1150 AM
• canada.com Traffic Watch

I'm surprised that someone who lives in Toronto has never heard this on the radio - I hear it at least once a week, and I rarely listen to the radio. Mindmatrix 21:15, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

Not only that, but the MTO uses "The Basketweave" on their own COMPASS cameras and uses the phrase on their central region traffic reports as a waypoint when describing where an incident has occured. Snickerdo 20:13, 23 May 2007 (UTC)
