If I remember from the last time I went through Oshawa... there's plenty of space to place a pair of tracks between the station building and the existing bridge structure. Between them right now are only pavement and a temporary-looking canopy.
The bridge can be extended over this space to a...
I never understood why they didn't plug the 407 directly into the freeway part of the 115 at Hwy 35. That way, the existing RIRO section of the 115 could simply be part of Hwy 35 only, and the 407 could extend to Hwy 7 east of Peterborough. Hwy 115 itself would vanish as a designation.

I got out to the Distillery District today, riding the 514 one way and taking the 121 back. Now that I've seen the place with my own eyes, I am wondering.... why not extend the 121's loop one block east to the edge of Corktown Common?
The trip down Cherry street was pretty short, as I expected...
