I wonder if a good old fashioned parking lot gate, triggered to open only by a streetcar, is needed.

Hopefully it was a few rogue employees having fun, hopefully employees who don't have any impact on planning.
see everyone is different....i used to post screenshots of tweets and people complained that they wanted the link. Before you ask...no, I am not inclined to do bothIt would be helpful if you would post the text of a tweet as most people do, or a screenshot of it. Having to click on a link to see it is not very convenient on a smartphone, especially if the tweet gets deleted.
The same question must also be posed to the King St transit mall.The same reason why they didn't put in retractable bollards. The penny-pinchers at City Hall will NOT put in retractable bollards nor gates because of the cost.
However, how much does City Hall and the TTC has to spend to get the idiot drivers (and there are more than three, so far) out of the tunnels? How much time and money wasted until the streetcar tunnels are made available again?
Would be cheaper to scrape the vehicles away before they enter the tunnels.
I can tell you that the 4th option was not in the original poll, was added by someone who did not agree with the premise.
the empty subway trains running back-and-forth on Sheppard until 2:30 AM

"How would you describe the TTC?"
"Cesspool - 2"
"Terrible - 1"
"I like dirty subways - 1"
"It's awesome, considering they have no $ - 1"
Oh wow, the Sheppard Line does run until 2:30 AM.
So these are the people tasked with coordinating transit across the region?
Probably. Welcome to any office in the world. People goof around a bit, with the assumption that nobody is gonna walk into the office and start tweeting out pictures of their inside jokes.
And just for the record, at least two of those are completely accurate descriptions of the TTC and its management.
Regardless of the validity 0r non-validity of the content, it's a very unprofessional thing to allow.
I'm not aware of any ATC on the Sheppard line. Or plans to install it anytime in the next decade.And, by the way, they ran with two operators until a few months ago. It took ATC for them to cut back to one operator (for a train that drives itself, no less).
Sounds like you've never been in any workplace before. If the public could suddenly see and comment on every office in the country, millions of people (including myself) would be getting fired for this sort of thing. Nobody's workplace is completely up to the standards of "professionalism".

It's a stupid joke that a few of Metrolinx's hundreds of employees made amongst themselves. No need to be blowing it out of proportion.
