Ok so I rode this line Good -it's very nicely designed, simple and easy to get to -very clean (for now) -full of transit nerds midday Bad -it.is.slow. It moves at barely 20 km/h per hour, which is slower than walking from stop to stop -feels like the supplement bus is doing a lot of the lifting...

Yikes... What is the chance of an extension to Yonge or Don Mills? Or the Airport?

It would be tight because I would assume frequent service would be for both lines.

Agreed. I think they can try to add a siding where possible, or triple where possible, and go to 10 minutes.

Folks do we trust Metrolinx to execute any of this?

It's getting late in the game, and the election has already happened. We should be hearing about plans for this, especially with the Finch West LRT about to come online. Also they probably need to do this in one shot, or two larger phases. Sheppard West to STC, or Sheppard West to McCowan and...

Excited!

It's very obvious that they take the voters for granted, and the fact that this isn't publicized doesn't help things. I think the opposition parties have no cachet right now. Newmarket, in particular, keeps supporting these guys when Mulock GO is in development hell. Even Aurora getting the 15...

People in Barrie and Newmarket need to make noise about this. They own the whole line. They need to stick to previous commitments and provide 15-minute service to Bradford and 60-minute service to Barrie.

I agree with people saying work takes time, but you have to have contingency plans. As Metrolinx owns most of this corridor, it's on them to finish this. The project should have been done during covid.

A lot of storefronts are now condos on this stretch.

Excited for this project

Walk by this all the time and the progress is impressive.

Seems like this plan is dead.

Probably would be like Finch.
