yes, here's the guy talking about going FAST when he wants to add more stations on the yonge line - pure genius

Read the consensus again and you'll see that it has something to do with the station not existing in the first place- which is exactly what my position is. I made the thread to see if others thought was viable for the station to be mothballed. Look at the satellite/air photos . low density? I...

I think this is a major factor that willl prevent Rosedale from being closed down I didn't say I disagreed with the consensus or anything but your overreaction makes you look like a nutjob oh great! this will reduce the time it gets to downtown from Finch station (and any station that...

There are no major developments around the station unlike Bessarion- which has concord park place to guarantee a steady ridership. I'm actually surprised to see that summerhill has lower ridership. Riding the yonge line every week day, I can tell you this is not true 3 million trips ...

For those of us who use the YUS line on a regular basis, you might notice that at any given time, Rosedale's platforms are vastly underused compared to most other stations on the line (Summerhill is a close 2nd) Some look at the surrounding neighbourhood reveals why ridership is so low...

what do you mean by most systems? If you're thinking European or Asian systems, forget it. Its TTC ... no match and yeah I ride the subway most days but I only see out of service trains 10% or less of the time

you ask for too much its not very often a train out of service passes through

if you use the sheppard subway on a regular basis, you'll notice that the crowd is actually dispersed very well since the rest of the stations have exits away from the centre. And its a terminal station, dwell time is more than 1 minute anyways so there is no point

The new rocket solves problem #2 and as for markings on platforms, TTC trains seem to stop wherever they feel like depending on the conductor's mood.

wow the front is more aerodynamic than I thought it would be. The windows on the doors look extremely wide Im interested to see what the middle carriages look like now The new smooth sides look much better than the old sides with a thousand bolt connections It could use a red stripe at the...

Perhaps the GPS doesnt map the new subdivision?

that will make the cards too expensive to manufacture. I dont know of any smartcard system that has a display on the card but some laptops have a reader so that you can pay with your card for online shopping (and presumably recharge/check balance as well)

lol it will be much more useful on your hand or something since you make contact with the card reader. Imagine bending 90 degrees everytime you ride You mean Presto doesn't have the little lcd/led screen that displays current balance and balance deducted?

Yeah, I noticed there was heavy work for bayview at eglinton (beside McDonalds) and the Lawrence bridge- those 2 are done now so I hope they repave the whole road top to bottom (steeles to somewhere past queen st?) The section between 401 and york mills doesnt have that may utility cuts...

please expand on what you mean by utility cuts , is it like budget constraints? and if so, why was Mt pleasant re-done in just a week while Bayview is taking years

My commute, from North York to Downtown, is done in the form of biking at times. I take Bayview Ave from 401 down to Davisville where I change to Mount Pleasant Rd then bike all the way down to Sherbourne. Bayview is one of the WORST roads in GTA, especially the section between 401 and...

you wouldn't need to emphasize safety if you had PSDs Plus, you'll need ATC before you can install PSD which will take forever for the TTC.

search 'aria' pics on google off topic but reading/watching this series will make you appreciate this condo more (name value).. it's that good

I thought most Chinese people in Markham were of Cantonese origin so Mandarin wouldn't work as well right?

I live around the area and when I saw the sign, immediately came up with this. But alas, no one will get the reference :(
