    Toronto Toronto | Ontario Line 3 | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    I remember that, we used to take the Mall Circle 87 from Eringate directly to both Sherway and Long Branch.

    Not to be that guy but math is important to a successful engineering project…

    Toronto Toronto | Eglinton Line 5 | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx | Arcadis

    No, however the government he was a part of signed off on the team taking on the construction, I’m saying if he’s throwing stones at the government than take a look in the mirror.

    If the tunnels are sinking than Mike Colle shouldn’t be placing blame on the current premier but recognize that the previous Liberal Government, which he was a member of, and their buddies should be held responsible for the poor planning and construction.

    Toronto Toronto | Union Station Revitalization | ?m | ?s | City of Toronto | NORR

    I know a lot of money was spent on the station but could they have spent some on a proof reader…

    Toronto Toronto | Eglinton Line 5 Crosstown West Extension | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    Yes, fed/Ontario governments could build it. Feds have generally had a policy of not subsidizing the largest Canadian airports for many decades. Contributing to a terminal would go against that long-term policy. You have likley noticed above that the money flows the other way, from the airport...

    bummer, thanks for the update.

    University Avenue (History and Future Redesign)

    Does anyone know if this is still happening? With University and Queen being torn up for the Ontario line, it seems like the perfect time.

    I think Richview makes a lot of sense, you’re right about the size ofthe area but most people will associate the area to the high school. I grew up around Renforth and Eglinton in the early 70s and was a Boy Scout with “Richview” on our scarfs, even back then people would assume we were from...

    I always wondered if they are returned to manufacturer for refurbishing and reuse or they basically a disposable device? Wouldn’t it save ML money to use them on the Ontario Line or the Yonge Extension?

    Toronto Toronto | Eglinton Line 5 | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx | Arcadis

    Warning - Old man rant ahead…. Just prioritize the signals and increase speed between stops. If someone drives a car in front of a train this is 9 times out of 10 because they are in a rush, don’t care or not interested in obeying traffic signals. Self importance and entitlement has become an...

    King Street (Streetcar Transit Priority)

    This seems to always be the argument… However, from a quick Googlewalk along King between Spadina and University it appears that loading and parking is off the side streets, (I may missed something because the camera drives beside a streetcar for a block.) For the possibility that there is one...

    Toronto Toronto | Bloor–Danforth Line 2 Scarborough Subway Extension | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    is there any work happening on site? A shovel this big would create a lot of traffic removing earth from the tunnel, it would be hard to fake.

    Gondolas as Urban Transit

    I proposed this as the solution to move people from Exhibition Station to Ontario Place, will allow for people to get to Ontario Place without walking through or around the Ex.
