    Toronto Toronto | Union Station Revitalization | ?m | ?s | City of Toronto | NORR

    Mind you, there have been escalators in the York concourse for quite some time, so I don't think we can read much into this.

    GO Transit: Service thread (including extensions)

    ' Cynical, maybe. But the track record so far, with the exception of "Buck a beer", most if not all of their moves since June have been to throw away anything introduced by the Liberals regardless of claimed "support" during the election. So, no, I don't think the province will be destroyed...

    GO Transit: Service thread (including extensions)

    When you have a dumpster fire as premier, you always assume the worst, just like in actual dumpster fires. Unpredictable and bad for the world in general, but you can't look away even though you are well aware of the destruction.

    High Speed Rail: London - Kitchener-Waterloo - Pearson Airport - Toronto

    The original tunnel in Sarnia has been mostly filled in, with the portals preserved for historical value only. Somewhat related, the pedestrian bridge just east of the tunnels is being closed permanently.

    Metrolinx: Presto Fare Card

    ^ A few years ago, we borrowed a friends Oyster cards and ran into issues reloading with my Visa so we had to circle around the station to find a machine that accepted cash for reloads.

    The 40 special train is currently sitting at Mimico yard.

    There's nothing wrong with the 30 bus. Except it's not a train. Although I typically sleep better on the bus, so not the end of the world.

    A few months ago, I was one of 3 people on a GO bus from Bramalea to Kitchener mid-Afternoon.

    New GO Dog Policy

    My dog can go 6-10 hours between needing to go out (when required, usually we let her out much more frequently when we're able). I'm sure they can manage on most corridor routes.

    New GO Dog Policy

    A dog and it's owner joined us for the bus ride from Bramalea to Kitchener a few weeks ago. No issues. The dog just lay down at the owners feet.

    Roads: Highway 401 Widening - Highway 8 to Highway 410 (MTO, U/C, Planned)

    As someone who spent 6 hours on transit yesterday r/t from my house in Kitchener to the office at Yonge/Bloor, I agree.

    GO Transit: Construction Projects (Metrolinx, various)

    Noticed some track equipment on the abandoned spur between Torbram and 407 this afternoon and a Railworks truck sitting by the crossing at Torbram this afternoon.

    Roads: Highway 401 Widening - Highway 8 to Highway 410 (MTO, U/C, Planned)

    That'd be a very long subway ride from Kitchener.

    EB Offramp at Mavis has been shifted since those pictures were taken.

    Sombra ferry is currently out of commission due to ice wrecking the causeway on the Canadian side this winter. http://thesarniajournal.ca/sombra-ferry-owners-intend-to-restart-service-on-their-own/

    GO Transit: Construction Projects (Metrolinx, various)

    Tim Hortons in Burlington has been open when I've passed through, once at 645am and another at 430pm, en route to a GO bus from the loop to Aldershot due to a last minute short turn by the train.

    2018 Provincial Election Transit Promises

    While there are some reasonable heads in cabinet (eg Fedelli, Elliott), there are a few not so reasonable ones, like Monte Mcnaughton. Let's hope reason is a guiding force instead of the populist idiocy that showed itself on the campaign trail.

    Roads: Ontario/GTA Highways Discussion

    Sure, but the argument here is the sign doesn't tell you estimated travel time to downtown Toronto, only Highway 6 or the Linc, so what purpose does it serve? It's like comparing apples to oranges. You can get to Guelph on a highway that isn't really that busy in this amount of time OR you can...

    Roads: Ontario/GTA Highways Discussion

    Any detour for the 401 in that stretch is likely going to be longer than sticking out the delay caused by road work. The highway cuts up a diagonal with only 3 exits in 30 km (238/250/268) and not necessarily an easy path between them.
