It's not about not asking the question. Having an open pit like this is terrible and embarrassing. It's about not purposefully misrepresenting the facts. You'll notice that everything Mr. Watson says is  technically correct, but spun in such a way that the City looks like they went out of their...

I just hoped CityNerd would pass 100k! Anything past that (and especially beating the Toronto and Sydney videos that came out around the same time) has been the gravy on top!

We're ready for it whenever it opens. ETS doesn't control construction, much to our dismay.

We've been mulling this over as well. The 500-level routes are noticibly down from 2024 to 2025. Valley Line took a minor ridership hit as well in November year/year. We only had vague ideas why but then this story was published out of Brampton that gave us something to chew on -->...

I was under the impression that anyone using a card of any type (Arc Card, debit card, credit card) would be paying $3.00 while anyone using cash or purchasing an Arc Ticket from a vending machine would be paying $3.75. This is to encourage everyone to either just have an Arc Card or tap with...

These numbers are very positive and a source of pride right now at ETS. Just everyone don't freak out too much when Q4 numbers are released and it shows a huge decline. The three weeks of school strike had ridership down 25% on the buses. LRT is not as affected but Q4 numbers will be brutal.

Failed council candidate - yes. Former city manager - no... A former general supervisor fired for running his (admittedly brilliant and successful) coffee shop on COE time - bingo.

Excellent timing! I heard today December 8. That coincides with ETS Rider Appreciation Week so it would seem to check out.

Not in Blatchford but the former Value Village at 103 St and 118 Ave has an active building permit for renos submitted by No Frills. Huge news for Westwood and the surrounding neighbourhoods. Undoubtedly related to booming infill in the area and of course Blatchford. A long standing food desert...

Pushed back. Didn't get a reason and didn't get a date. But still "by the end of the year."

Full debit and credit tap-to-pay is tentatively ready to go for November 17th. This is the first time I've seen a definitive date. Even if it gets pushed back they are at the point of having an actual date which is a big deal for a cautious organization like ETS.

There are about 5 15 or so operational Proterra's left. You're seeing them on the road more due to more short blocks coming on line for September. There is no contract to repair - Proterra is bankrupt. *Edited to reflect EdwardEdm's more accurate information.

Regardless, that's big for the area. There's another industrial type development further north on 98 St just south of 110A Ave and infill somewhat starting to pop off nearby. Encouraging!

Wow this would be huge! Does anyone know how much of that parking would be taken by this building? The whole lot is empty right from 108A Ave to 109A Ave now and it's such an eyesore.
