    Dead/Decaying Malls of Greater Toronto

    Interesting to note that with the exception of the Westwood Square location, all 5 other locations were former Zellers locations that Target did not wish to take over when they acquired the Zellers leases.

    While the map labels it as "Express corridors" in other documents it is referred to as "priority corridors" where additional infrastructure such as queue jump lanes could be installed. I would not necessarily take that as an indication Eglinton will receive express service, being very close to...

    The Dundas BRT was part of the Investing In Canada Infrastructure Program (ICIP) funding request and it includes BRT lanes from Confederation to Etobicoke Creek for the first phase. The project does meet the criteria for timeline otherwise it would not have been submitted in the first place...

    Mississauga Master Transportation Study For Lakeshore

    Regarding why it seems only such a short stretch of BRT on Lakeshore is being built, it has to do with the fact that it is being funded by the Investing In Canada Infrastructure Program. One of the key criteria for projects being funded under this program is that they must be substantially...

    I believe Drum did state he had not actually done any of his counts for at least 10 years and was probably trying to be helpful giving a rough estimate. As for your question regarding Bloor and Burnhamthorpe the general answer is the transitway has definitely resulted in ridership patterns...

    Thanks for reaching out for ridership stats! Would it be possible to share the full document/stats they sent? I am still planning on compiling the APC data I mentioned above to share here. Is there any indication whether the data they shared is based on APC data? When I did the transitway data...

    Ridership information released to the public on request, I know because I've recieved ridership info in the past. For route by route breakdown MiWay has done full counts (all routes) in 2015 and partial counts (specific routes) in 2016 and 2018. However I also have the data collected from the...

    The Transitway's first phase opened in November 2014, so my comparisons are based on the September 2014 weekday schedules to today between Islington and Square One: AM Peak: 36 minutes to 31 minutes (-5 minutes) Midday: 35 minutes to 30 minutes (-5 minutes) PM Peak: 41 minutes to 32 minutes (-9...
