    TTC: Other Items (catch all)

    All we know is that the two people were not known to each other, and the TTC employee pulled the first knife. Whatever the cause was, it's probably reasonable to say that it would have been smarter if she hadn't engaged with that person at all. I doubt we have reached that stage, it's probably...

    TTC: Other Items (catch all)

    What the hell is in the water in this city? Between this, and the guy that got stabbed after he started punching a guy for playing music too loud a few years ago... does no one know to mind their own business anymore? Jesus.

    Finch West Line 6 LRT

    My guess is the 30 or 50, as they're the only other routes besides the 40 which have that diagonal angle of travel at the east end. According to Transit Toronto, 50 years ago the late evening frequency on the 30 was 40 minutes, while no frequency is given for the 50, so the latter is my guess.

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

    Prague is the same. The existence of crosstown metro routes in no way resulted in the extinction of long crosstown tram routes, too, even though very few people use them to travel from one end of the city to another. Cutting the 501 in the central section would be a complete own goal. And...

    PM Mark Carney's Canada

    Because corporations famously wouldn't take advantage of a perfectly legal opportunity to not have to follow laws? The fact that the minister is allowed to decide whether it's in the public interest to grant an exemption, and the fact that it will be taxpayers on the hook to deal with the...

    PM Mark Carney's Canada

    Exactly the type of corrupt, cronyist nonsense people would've lost their minds about if it was Ford or PP doing it. Hope the same level of criticism and scrutiny is applied when it's the "good guys" that are doing it.

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

    Because the Ontario line doesn't go where they're going. The line won't even run west of Bathurst on Queen in the first place, and it certainly wouldn't be a smart use of time to head up to line 2 and then use whatever feeder bus is at the nearest station.

    MiWay drivers do this regularly at Square One.

    And if they had put up maps with only the 6 on them, and had to reprint them a month or two later with the 5 on it, you guys would be complaining at how much money they're wasting.

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

    People think of streetcars as being for long distance because that's how the route network is designed. I think that you're overstating just how transformative the Ontario line will be. We're not building a network here, it is one line, and it will have its target audience in the areas where...

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

    This doesn't seem at all realistic. There's always going to be a certain group of passengers who will need to travel from one side of the "divide" to the other, and despite the mixed traffic stretch, there's no way it will be more economical, time wise, to get out, travel into the deep caverns...

    Finch West Line 6 LRT

    No worries. And here's the averages for yesterday (Tuesday, December 2), going westbound: And eastbound: Nothing all that dramatically different, seems like a pretty standard deviation for random acts of chance. The one odd thing is that the low numbers are skewed by a trip unhelpfully...

    Christmas Day? As in a day when the politicos who simply *must* be there to give their vapid speeches will want to be at home with their families?

    GO Transit: Construction Projects (Metrolinx, various)

    I haven't been to Kennedy in forever, does anyone have any pics of what the platforms look like now? Hard to believe they'd actually be so stupid as to actively remove constructed infrastructure, but you never know with these clowns at the helm.
