Downsview Park is pretty convenient as a Barrie Line transfer as well, especially when you're trying to go somewhere more than 10 minutes from Union. (ignore the fact that it's the least used subway station)

Probably about running a full Queens Quay line instead of having the 509/11 on the east and some sort of Cherry/Port Lands car on the west, with a transfer at Union.

So basically we need a "missing link" north of the 401 to take the truck traffic off, and we could call it the 40... can someone help me find a number? Jokes aside, I don't think any government is politically ready to take lanes off the 401, and a routing along the side of the corridor would be...

Yeah, good point about that. I remember once I was trying to get downtown, and hopped on a bus that stopped right outside the station entrance. There was no schedule alignment and I arrived basically as the train pulling out. It's a shame how little cooperation happens between levels of transit...

This is another problem that's been highlighted: the hub-and-spoke model of Toronto's rail network that is all about bringing people from the suburbs to Downtown. I live in Aurora, and visiting a friend in Mississauga requires taking a YRT bus, then the GO, then the subway, then the GO bus, then...

I've only lived in Richmond Hill and Aurora, but I've always remembered the bus-rail connections to be pretty decent. And the Viva frequencies are OK on the main section of yonge (though hwy7, yonge north, and davis need some work)

It's not any fault of the city, really. Just the abusive practices of the big telecoms.

Can someone remind me when Tim Hudak was leading a provincial government?

I believe the usual term is "delivering twins"

Yet another Black Creek flood. Hopefully this project goes ahead soon.

I assume you're talking about the "Half" (Quarter) Mile Bridge? The view is a bit crowded from there, with the DVP on one side and hydro wires on the other.

I was just about to suggest that they'd probably "test" some sort of unrealistic monorail in the Ex, but it seems W. K. Lis has beat me to the punch

There's a thread for the connection here https://urbantoronto.ca/forum/threads/dundas-west-bloor-mobility-hub-interconnected-hub-network-metrolinx.16392/page-11 Could you send a screenshot?

AODA requirements more likely.

Pshhh. Next you're going to tell me that we can run these "streetcars" underground automatically and with wide stop spacing. Kids these days with their schmancy technology.

nor does it have doors on both sides, etc.

There is BRT north, east, and west of the Hwy7 terminal. Hopefully the subway can motivate people to use them. Though downtown riders, as always, will be using GO trains.

There's still a few YRT busses that would likely still run down to Steeles and then towards the station (2, 91, 88, 99), but I assume fare-paid zone considerations will result in separate terminals.

https://www.cp24.com/news/richmond-hill-woman-who-killed-cyclist-while-driving-drunk-charged-with-impaired-driving-while-on-parole-1.4995341 How about killing someone on a suspended license, going to prison, getting paroled on the promise to "never drink again", and blowing over 0.10 again?

Unfunded projects in limbo? That would never happen in Toronto.
