If Phil doesn't know (he wouldn't confirm '24 opening), I don't think anyone does at this stage. There are too many variables yet.

Phil just went live. No date just a media show. One reporter indicated some engineers said they need warmer temps for some work which Phil refused to address. Then, admitted in a later comment some of the defects (I believe around signaling) are weather dependant. Edit: now that it's wrapped...

CTV site claims it is expected for 9am streamed on cp24....but we are well past that... But they are on site: https://x.com/CourtHeelsCP24/status/1733134173953561086?s=20 Screenshots:

Another example of stellar journalism getting it completely wrong? From this article, blogTo claims setting a default trip saves money... Am I missing something, I thought it was only to save you time by not having to tap off, but it charges less too?

I believe these were consistent with the shelters in the renderings at quick glance: All this discussion about shelters has me wondering what Metrolinx will build for the Durham-Scarborough BRT (which we will find out soon?)... Presumably because of longer headways/wait times. Here's a...

Minutes are up for the Dec meeting which list the January service cuts and changes to service as expected. I was suprised to see the express route (discussed in previous posts) will not stop between Brock (Rd) and Conlin which is quite the distance! Not what I'm used to when comparing against...

Nice that they'll make the DVP slip ramps safer which have already had incidents in the past (assuming design was cause for accident). Also interesting they show cyclists use the sidewalk in the rendering... is that supposed to be a child or is that a future MUP replacing the sidewalk? Speed...

They are not (smooth); however a moot point according to David as texture is meaningless because sidewalks in Toronto are all over the place (I'm paraphrasing). Source

Dean Blundell posted an interesting article some of which I've never heard before; with a promise for more... *Spicy language warning* https://crier.co/i-promised-id-come-for-doug-ford-so-lets-give-you-some-context-before-we-unload-the-clip/

That poor little patch of green cycle track in the 4th and 5th pictures.... At least you get a 2 second break before and after the slip lanes!

The way Bill Holmes mentioned it made it seem like the first order of zero emission busses pending funding. I edited timestamp above if you wanted to hear.

As per the meeting above, they were waiting on IC for funds(42:30 mark). So unless something has happened since Nov 8, or these could be for additional ones?

From what I understand, they are waiting for infrastructure Canada funds (announcement) for (those?) electrics.

The Durham/Scarborough BRT has always been planned from STC along Ellesmere. The Toronto portion is unfunded and did face local opposition (Highland Creek)... No word beyond that at present. Other DRT routes would still service Sheppard and I would assume some space for DRT may be included at...

The 920 is only express in Toronto. DRT does not have express bus service like Toronto within the regions' limits. To me, the way it was presented suggested they are adding express service to help with the demands (get people to the major hubs so you don't have a slow full bus stopping...

After watching the transit exec committee meeting, a couple of things caught my attention that were not included in minutes : Changes in January may include express services (920 express between Oshawa/Toronto) 13 replacement busses of the 19 lost in the fire arrive in May, and they have...

I wouldn't hold my breath re funding. To my previous posts, there are significant pressures to keep tax increases down and I doubt they will cut the homelessness budget items to find room... To @Northern Light 's post above re: (unnecessarily) spending on rebranding, I really think there will...

Why are we ignoring Go transit lines to make a point? We should be thinking of the network...not TTC vs Go.

Couldn't find anything on the globe and mails site... Got a link? All I could find was the global article... it talks about Finch maybe opening in '25.

Similar with drt upcoming transit executive meeting. Heres an example of how it will work from the above:
