    Mississauga Dixie Rd/QEW New Interchange (MTO, 1s, AECOM)

    On Urban Toronto, we call it Hurontario St.

    Canadian Highway Fantasy Thread

    I know that, but being national (in spirit), Ontario could've just made it Hwy. 1 using only the TCH shield to make "TCH-1" as long as possible, making a point of making it logically exempt from provincial squabbling. Also, US interstates are owned and maintained by the states, making them not...

    Roads: Ambassador & Gordie Howe Bridges

    Herb Gray is the 401 extension.

    Roads: Ambassador & Gordie Howe Bridges

    I find it funny they call the 401 only "Herb Gray Pkwy." yet its not even signed on the 401.

    But the TCH is national, so this should have been disregarded.

    Ontario could easily change 17 to 1 (signed with a TCH shield exclusively) as it has no Highway 1 anyway.

    Toronto Toronto | Crosstown LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx | Arcadis

    I've ridden on many big roads without bike lanes before they existed and never had issues. It seems the fear factor increases more than the safety factor meant to ease them.

    Richmond Hill Toronto | Yonge Line 1 North Subway Extension | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    Saying "250 feet" and "tonnes" (the latter in casual use to boot) sounds a little funny. 😀

    Mississauga Toronto | Hurontario-Main Line 10 LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    Empty lots there? Mineola seems almost semi-rural (unbelievable given the location) but wow.

    Vaughan Toronto | CG Tower | 188.97m | 60s | Cortel Group | BDP Quadrangle

    But as I suspected, no other office buildings were built. Another "bait" project like Aviva in Downtown Markham with no other takers.

    Mississauga Toronto | Hurontario-Main Line 10 LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    It's more because people still call it Highway 10 because Mississauga has a rural history.

    Mississauga Toronto | Hurontario-Main Line 10 LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    I just noticed in all the pics I've seen...where's the southbound connection from Rathburn? Is is supposed to just veer off Rathburn at-grade?

    GTHA Regional Transit Amalgamation Discussion: Superlinx/Subway Upload

    I don't think it's so much that because Caledon could be served by regional transit. Along with the municipalities spanning the region, its also a matter of north-south routes needing to be split anyways due to length, which the Mississauga/Brampton boundary area is already very suitable for.

    GTHA Regional Transit Amalgamation Discussion: Superlinx/Subway Upload

    If one transit system is created for Halton, that would leave Peel as the only region that still has lower-tier transit. Kind of ironic giving the age and extent of urbanization there, but sort of making sense given its geography of having only two cities on top of one another with no other...

    Roads: Ontario/GTA Highways Discussion

    Nope. 400A was changed to 11.

    Roads: Ontario/GTA Highways Discussion

    It does now and has since 11 was downloaded between Toronto and Barrie

    Roads: Ontario/GTA Highways Discussion

    Given this is for the whole province, GTA transit projects are not that relevant here.

    Roads: Ontario/GTA Highways Discussion

    The 410 and part of the 403 isn't actually a replacement of Cawthra, as Cawthra ended at Eglinton, where the concession grid changed. It was built there because development ended at Heart Lake/Tomken in Mississauga and there was open space available to build it to the west, allowing Heart...
