    Toronto Toronto | One Delisle | 155m | 44s | Slate | Studio Gang

    I don’t recall seeing lights on at this thing prior to today.

    Walked by around noon and they were already installing the replacement station while CTV News team were setting up next to the workers. I guess it will be back in operation soon. There was definitely some debris and metal chunks still around though the bigger pieces were picked up.

    What the hell. It is difficult enough to find bikes in the neighbourhood without some of the stations I use being taken out by sports cars...

    I just ridden one by chance! Impressions: The bike seat adjustment lock is the best implementation I have seen. You just need to lift the mechanism and adjust and push it back down. Can even be down while in motion if you were desperate. This thing feels like a heavier bike. Even so, it seems...

    Was thinking the same after seeing all the expansion in South Etobicoke. I think this would make sense with Mississauga and an expansion along the waterfront towards Port Credit.

    Unwin Ave - Undriveable

    Was taking the Dufferin bus the other day and I think Dufferin may be competitive for City's worst lol.

    Hamilton International Airport

    Punta Cana would be a massive destination for YHM to pick up.

    Calls for sweeping changes to ‘fragmented’ GTA transit system

    That one should be easy. They just need to turn them on. The "smart" traffic lights were installed 30-40 years ago and left unused since it inconveniences drivers.

    305 Bremner Blvd | ?m | ?s | Government of Ontario

    Just want to point out that Infrastructure Ontario has been actively investigating developing this site for some 20-odd years. If it actually proceeds under Doug's government, that is indeed an indictment on his government, but plans for this site did not originate with him. In my opinion...

    Toronto Toronto | Pinnacle Lakeside Phase 2 | 226.35m | 70s | Pinnacle | Hariri Pontarini

    I like the repositioning of the internal courtyard into a corner POPS. More fitting for this stretch of the waterfront and I expect it will get good usage.

    Hamilton International Airport

    If these were offered at RyanAir prices then it would become price competitive for a group traveling vs car-sharing. With the current fare structures of domestic flying, I'm curious what demand outlook they are projecting. As for Hamilton, I would not be shocked to see 14x be cut down to 7x...

    Burlington Toronto | 1200 King Road | 174.4m | 53s | Alinea | Giannone Petricone

    It is funny how adding a simple protected bike lane at-grade with the sidewalk towards the GO station along "Street A" and perhaps "Street B" would resolve the distance to the GO station issue, but because this is the suburbs, that is sacrilege to suggest even in a brand new master-planned...

    St Clair West Transportation Masterplan

    Maybe, but the car only stops if the stop signal is pressed. In my experience, Tweedsmuir is often skipped at off-peak hours, unlike say Finch West where the line stops at every stop.

    I honestly think some sort of cash return program for docking bikes into empty docks would sort the system organically, at least in the high density areas of the city/network.

    Toronto Toronto | 586 Eglinton East | 154.1m | 46s | Sanderling Developments | a—A

    A highly coveted medical office class type, no less.

    Toronto Strachan House | 100.51m | 30s | Homes First + CreateTO | DTAH

    If so, that is by total accident. @insertnamehere is correct that they failed to determine highest and best use of the site in their planning, which is a regular occurance by CreateTO. Even then, as we are talking about subsidized units in this building here and not fully market rates, I still...

    I would pay extra for that feature for sure. I spend a lot of time walking 20 minutes to the one bike in the neighbourhood only to be beaten to it by seconds.

    Toronto Bike Share

    I was also nearly an hour late for work today after having to walk to the TTC station and riding it downtown (I had foolishly walked 20 minutes after the one remaining bike in the region only to be beaten to it by seconds). I got off at St Andrew and saw it was a 15 minute wait for the...

    Toronto Bike Share

    Lodging my regular complaint into the new year. Three hour span of rush hour this morning and absolutely zero Bike Share bikes anywhere in Midtown Toronto between Bloor and Lawrence. How is this network supposed to be seen as reliable without bikes.
