    VIVA + York Region Transit

    Don't you mean the "York Region deserves a third TTC Subway Line and we can show it" VIVA route? :p

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

    Is there something in the regulations that allows dedicated left turn signals in peak hours and "free for all on thru green" outside of peak? Or is that simply a technology limitation where it cannot be done unless the dedicated lights and sign can rotate out of sight or disappear?

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

    At least all subway transfers are underground, the entire corridor is double tracked, and the platforms can support 3 car trains.

    Markham Toronto | Buttonville Airport Redevelopment | ?m | 1s | Cadillac Fairview | Glenn Piotrowski Architect

    I like that this updated development proposal matches the region's plan for the 16th Ave interchange reconfiguration. Requiring a turn coming from Allstate Pkwy (same with Renfrew Dr but to a lesser degree) to get to 16th Ave feel like a disadvantage to the street network, but if that reroute...

    GO Transit: Construction Projects (Metrolinx, various)

    Are there multiple staircases from platform to south side Steeles Ave? Or just one stairs and one elevator per platform per side of street?

    Transit Fantasy Maps

    I think once GO Expansion is fully rolled out on the 4 main corridors, people will finally see that GO Transit is a viable option to travel inside the City of Toronto and adding service to Milton and Richmond Hill Lines would be the next step. However, the Midtown Line could be a much more...

    Closed as in it is invite only or can you apply like the old Presto Panel?

    GO Transit Fleet Equipment and other

    Is there any reason the middle two are facing the opposite direction of the outside four? Does it have something to do with potential roll off?

    Eglinton East LRT | Metrolinx

    Just curious, what makes Ellesmere a major stop? Of course there is ridership east of McCowan, it should be extended all the way to Rouge Hill GO. :cool:

    YRT/Viva Construction Thread (Rapidways, Terminals)

    Does anyone know what this "extra lane" next to the southbound bus lane on Yonge St between Westwood Ln/Beresford Dr and High Tech Rd is for? Why are the lines dashed? Could it be to extend the length of the left turn lane in the future? Could it be for non-Viva buses to merge into the lane to...

    Road Safety & Vision Zero Plan

    Are intersections that only allow left turns during the left turn phase safer than those that allow left turn while through traffic is allowed? Though it would take much longer to make a left even if you reach when left turn phase ends. And some drivers could get impatient when there have been...

    Finch West Line 6 LRT

    These are still in use, just only in curbside stops.

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

    Maybe sidewalks along the street are needed in case the teamways are closed or unusable?

    Toronto Toronto | GO Transit: Davenport Diamond Grade Separation | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    Do train drivers need new training for this sort of infrastructure, or do they just follow signals?

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

    What do you mean by "separated"? Are they like island fare-paid zones where there are multiple areas that are fare-paid, but no way to go between them without exiting to the fare-unpaid zone?
