    Roads: Gardiner Expressway catch-all, incl. Hybrid Design (2015-onwards)

    There should be.a special place in hell reserved for all the Toronto City councillors who kept kicking the east waterfront LRT down the road. I don’t accept the arguments wining about money. They were paid to make the decisions. Every ward got a few bits and pieces. Each councillor was happy...

    Fare evasion on the TTC...

    Why is that? It's clearly not as obvious to me as it is to you? But I am fairly linear....

    Hamilton Toronto | Hamilton Line B LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    All of you are writing as though we are describing something discretionary. I thought there was a need to provide a city outside of Toronto with proper 21st century transit. If there is, then all this debate about whether is really a debate about when. And future governments will have to ensure...

    The Liberals, no? They'd be gasoline to Conservatives...

    Roads: Gardiner Expressway catch-all, incl. Hybrid Design (2015-onwards)

    Nice pics of a renewal of a key part of the city’s (dramatically undersized) transportation infrastructure. Thank goodness...David Miller was sent packing and we didn’t install a ridiculous boulevard. To-MAY-to. To-MAH-to. iI have employees who commute four hours a day. I admire them, and I...

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

    I agree totally and that is a positive thought for a Saturday. But my inner asshole wants to say “I don’t want to visit it, I want it to be open so I can ride it.” I can’t wait for this stuff to be done. Argh.

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

    Based on what I see at Leslie, the guideway will not be level with the road everywhere Along the surface portion. Elsewhere there is a curb about double the height of a sidewalk. I doubt anyone without a Hummer is going to drive on it.

    TTC: Other Items (catch all)

    It may be easier to be the coach of the Miami Dolphins than to build transit in Toronto.

    TTC: Other Items (catch all)

    Oh fuddle. It's all progress. And then there's heaven. The only place perfection exists.

    I thought Donlands was first in the queue...the designs were finalized two summers ago...

    Fare evasion on the TTC...

    I ride mostly on the weekend. I see people getting on the 510 who simply board as though it were a subway and they had paid at street level. This has nothing to do with desperate circumstances as @crs1026 has said. It does have everything to do with people who are too special to pay, think the...

    GO Transit: Service thread (including extensions)

    What on earth is a "T" decal? And why does a stop need one?

    Why is the sky blue? Is Donald Trump’s hair real? Is Justin Trudeau’s?

    Toronto Toronto | Ontario Line 3 | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    This is rational and I knew all this. My question is really why the city can’t get its shit together?

    Toronto Toronto | Ontario Line 3 | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    So why is it so hard to buy the required number of streetcars to maximize the usage of the installed track (ahem 505, 503) and conceivably expand service - er we bought the same amount of capacity but now it’s in 200 vehicles instead of 250.

    GO Transit: Service thread (including extensions)

    In the case of these GO lines where there are 6 and 10 trains per direction in a day, so like a dozen to 20 trains - how many months might that take? It's a bazillion tonnes for sure.

    Now if we could connect it to Yonge and Finch...

    Toronto Toronto | Eglinton Line 5 Crosstown West Extension | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    It says that when there is a will and political capital in place of great philosophy and words which Mrs Wynne had in spades, that the needed result can be achieved. For some reason Canadian Liberalism is talk, talk talk. Don’t talk. Do.

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

    Hey modern man..this commuter starts downtown and works in the outer suburbs. Downtown is the destination each night. ;)

    Ottawa Transit Developments

    It means 17 available and a good deal fewer operational - like perhaps 15 at best and maybe only 14.
