I remember seeing Wellesley Street East upgrades on the map, but it is not mentioned in the motions above. What happened to it?

They did a great job with the livery 🥹

It does look slightly different. Look at the right side. The new one has the glass at the front going up to the upper floor, unlike the previous design. It is too grainy to see any other differences. I wonder what else has changed and whether the bike ramp survived.

I think this is relevant here. Someone posted on Reddit about the Line 9 tramline in the Paris area. It is exactly the same length at 10.3km. Has 19 stops. and can do the end to end trip in 32min. (scheduled at 30min) Look in this video at how aggressively they drive the trams. There seem to be...

Bonaventure Station? First time I hear of Bridge-Bonaventure Station. It seems it was requested by the city a year ago. CBC says reports that the CDPQ wants to build both at the same time to minimize disruption. But the Province is still looking into it financing-wise.

This has started circulating on social media. Someone is claiming it is part of the 2051 Metrolinx Regional Transportation Plan. No sources were provided.

I only say this half-jokingly. But is it not possible to install padded bumpers on the front of streetcars to push cars out of the way? Failing that, maybe in winter each streetcar route could have an assigned tow truck nearby to grab the cars. I can imagine this one will be a good source of...

You can read their platform. It was thin on transit. But they sound like they will review bike lanes and possibly remove some.

Something I didnt notice until now is that planned service on the Deux Montagnes branch on opening will end after 9pm on sections further than Côte-de-Liesse station. https://www.ctvnews.ca/montreal/article/deux-montagnes-rem-launches-on-nov-17-heres-what-riders-need-to-know/

The tunnel boring machine for the Blue Line extension has arrived. It will be assembled in 10 days according to the video. (or assembly will start in 10 days. My French is not strong) According to the construction director, building the stations and rail will be from 2028 to 2030 with the...

This suggests that what they already designed (I assume GO-sized platforms) will stay but with UP Express platforms added to it. What is unclear to me is how the platform length stays the same if the UPE platform will be added to it. Is the expectation that it will cannibalize part of the GO...

Sir, this is Wendy's Ontario Line thread. Edit: it seems this post got moved from the Ontario Line thread to here after posting.

I dont see why people are saying it is risky to open in winter. December is usually light on snow these days. And they will not open a transit line that derails with a dusting of snow.

They are being installed in many places, including Seattle. This article describes how the Toronto Barriers are different. From Seattle Bike Blog The City also published the dimensions of their standard one too.

Someone posted on Reddit a bunch of images for the Deux-Montagnes branch. They dont seem anaywhere else on Google so I assume credit goes to LockJaw987. Here they are: Île Bigras Station Bois-Franc Station Côte-de-Liesse station Côte-de-Liesse station Mont-Royal Station McGill...
