Do you mean having Sheppard go West? Because there's no real overlap between a Line 6 extension to Yonge and a Line 4 extension to McCowan. Both of those projects can easily co-exist.

In terms of which line should bridge the gap between the arms of Line 1, I'd rather it be Sheppard, but ideally we should eventually do both lines to provide redundancy.
Eventually it's going to be 3 lines, with the 407 transitway.

We should talk about double redundancies when we have all other parts of city covered by at least 1 rapid transit line. We are far from that.

What double redundancy? It's 2 km between Finch and Sheppard. If you build one line of the two discussed it will have very limited utility for those on the other street.

Finch West is far closer to reaching Yonge than Sheppard Line 4 is to reach Sheppard West. Both in cost, political will, logistics, planning and in necessity. Although both will be built.

However, for a number of reasons, to avoid a traffic nightmare, line 4 will have to be completed first before work on line 6 can begin.

You may want to ask the person who mentioned redundancies. I just quoted that post.
