I heard today from someone at a company that will bid on the project that they are expecting an RFP to drop anytime now for the Osgoode to Pape section of the line.
An RFP for what? The TPAP has not even begun yet, no?

Wow! That nice to hear. But, can the RFP be issued before the funding is committed?
That said, it's also possible to announce funding and the RFP on the same day. Having tenders in hand but not yet at financial close is one way of getting the public to provide a mandate.
The timing, conveniently, doesn't hurt Tory/Wynne election chances.
Remind me the purpose of a TPAP, please?Prior to construction, sure. Prior to the few hundred million in design/engineering that still needs to occur? Absolutely not.
Could be an RFP for detailed design. Or was the guy a construction guy?

I'm very much expecting this to be one of the major election promises from the Wynne team. And Richmond Hill as well.
I do hope we get concrete promises for transit funding by 2018. The DRL feels like it's floating around in the TPAP atm rather than moving forward.
It just occurred to me that the RFP may come before financing as a result of the Amazon HQ proposal deadline which is October 19th. They can show actual movement on the HQ proposal during the evaluation phase without needing to commit to following through on it if not selected.
