Michael Ford asked for a report on the possibility of going to Woodbine as councillor. Don't know what happened there. You could ask the new council member for the status.

Have you seen what the rest of the world use for Shelters??
If you have you will see they are way better than what other cities have, if they have shelter. A number of cities have better shelters than we do.
A number of systems are removing the glazing as its too costly to keep replacing them when they are damage illegally in the first place..
Now a nice curve overhead for a platform enclosing the platform would be great.

Yes I have.
So if we're going that route I've also seen what the rest of the world does right and it's pathetic what we're using as transit shelters since the new ones hardly do their job of sheltering from anything.

Could they have installed a shelter that covers the top of both sides?

Not enough space on streets in Toronto for that. Also even YRT isn't building those anymore probably because they cost too much to build.

Shame we didn't bundle burying the utility poles with the street rebuild. These opportunities don't come around very often.

I'm curious too.

Words! Like this "subway" at Queen Street West and Gladstone Avenue (Dufferin Street) under the railway.

I'm rather underwhelmed by the bicycle track design as well. With these full street reconstructions, we can do better.

On that note, I do sort of wish that Woodbine Racetrack would have changed its name to Rexdale Racetrack when it moved to Etobicoke decades back. In fact, nothing is stopping them from still changing it. It would be a nice homage to the community, which could use some love. Also, the coming GO station should probably be Rexdale too (also, to avoid sharing a name with a TTC station).
