What is the station spacing for this line? If it's close like
Melbourne's 86 tram, much better zoning needs to be accomodated unlike that terrible line. It should be noted that Melbourne LRT network is the largest in the world and dispite that, ridership is not impressive.
I've seen exurbanites get irritated with the slow and unappealing ride on the line. Much of the line goes through unappealing areas and the car is much quicker option on this corridor. The ride isn't that comfortable eitherl. To be honest, I can see the same for a Torontonian population who are used to more reliable service. For that reason, Sheppard needs to be developed into a "go to" area for the immediate population.
This corridor needs to be a complete downtown, with offices and shops that rival large malls in terms of diversity. GO Transit should be developed for long distance travel. Skyscrapers aren't neccessary, but the density needs to go up beyond Sheppard. Agincourt Mall, Canadian tire, Dragon Centre area, and the numerous plazas within the corridor are potential spots.
The immediate area around GO Agincourt, Oriole needs to be zoned as proposed in GO's 2020 plan. I have read that Unionville is going to be developed into an urban area. If that is going to be done, this needs to join development in Agincourt and Miliken as well. I think a Kennedy LRT first extending north to Unionville & Kennedy and then south of Kennedy & Eglinton. This NS corridor would have a lot of potential, seeing that it has a pretty decent density, and could join the development along the Eglinton corridor.
