With you on this. I totally do not understand the argument that it's a capacity downgrade. So what? That capacity isn't required. And LRT conversion enables through service with lots of surface running in Scarborough. I wish LRT champions would push this. It's the best way to sell LRT on this corridor in my opinion: advertise the elimination of a transfer and extension of service.
Exactly and if they cant find a car to fit in the tunnel they should abandoned the tunnel. Seriously . If its so great for Scarborough to be above ground its good enough for North York, especially on Sheppard ave. As Aquateams map above clearly shows This stretch was not even supposed to have transit to begin with. If anything the tunnel could provide a stop gap during construction while they fix the real issue here.
But who are we kidding? Back to reality. Politicians will never admit this big of screw up. Scarborough residents will be the ones slagged by a few minority outsiders for not accepting the transfer LRT patchwork and a subway will be extended in the future to keep transit in political hands
