Not everyone uses the bus to get to the subway.

Exactly. Some of us are waiting for Transit City to be built. Some of us are not even that lucky.
I rode the subway with my father the other day. He lived in Toronto in the late '70s. Since then, we have...
Sheppard Line
SRT
Kipling
Kennedy
North York Center
Downsview
Wow, what progress...
And a public that didn't care to make it a priority. If the public was screaming for subways, we would have had subways built.Blame that on politicians with no transit visions.

I'm actually kinda happy the reductions are in the peak, becaues peak servic is already pretty good, so the improvements they made to off-peak service are being maintained.
I'm kind of glad the public never did. I don't want one subway line every 5 - 10 years. I want better transit sooner than that and something network oriented.
You are glad the public didn't push for transit since the 70s because you want something better transit than 4 additional subway lines completed sooner than now? I don't get it.
I still don't get it.No, not since the 70's, more like since the late 90's and early 00's.
To be specific, I was using the sheppard subway construction as a benchmark for my argument. Is that clear enough?
That 96 Wilson Bus is going to hurt, It's fine all day but when that 4 o'clock hour hits, those bus's are rammed. Even when they bunch up that last bus is packed full. I had to walk to Wilson station a few times because I could not get on one due to overcrowding.
The public was screaming for subways since the Sheppard line was built? If that was true then a new subway line every 5-10 years would have another subway opening by next year at the latest which is not the case.
No, the public wasn't screaming for subways since Sheppard was built.
The public certainly isn't screaming for LRTs or trams...
