    the reason so few charges were laid is because it isn't being enforced.

    Your TTC/transit horror stories...

    On the 196 York University from Downsview... Just after pulling out of the station, my bus pulled up beside another bus at Sheppard and Allen. My bus driver opens the front door and starts talking to the bus driver next to us... "hey man, I almost hit you yesterday, hahaha, around...

    Subway To Mississauga: Routing

    You can sing the subways cost money song all you want. It's a number one hit on the political radio these days but the bottom line is that they work. And once you have them, it's a permanent investment. None of this upgrade from bus to LRT, then LRT to double LRT, double LRT to triple LRT...

    Subway To Mississauga: Routing

    Pardon me, I don't check the site that often these days so if I don't respond to someone "?????ing" me and assuming I don't know anything please forgive me. The RT comment was just a thought I had that I wanted to share. Maybe I should have posted it in a "things that will never happen, but...

    Subway To Mississauga: Routing

    instead of a subway, why not build an RT from Cooksville GO to Square One and Eglinton BRT... the rest of Hurontario can be served by expanded bus service.

    Subway To Mississauga: Routing

    In some cities, subway lines split in half and serve two communities instead of one. What if we did that with the Bloor line? Bloor-A (Bloor-Danforth-DUNDAS) could be routed along Dundas to Hurontario and eventually to UTM and the Dundas west retail strip (which has huge redevelopment...

    TTC York University BRT

    This whole project is a waste of money. I don't care what anyone says. The only time my trip to York (the bus portion) has been longer than 15 minutes was in the fall when somebody pushed someone out of a car on the 401 and all the traffic was diverted to Sheppard. Once the Toronto-Spadina-York...

    Toronto wants subways

    In due time, the TTC is going to have to face the facts that building a network of ROW Streetcar lines is not going to solve Toronto's problems. Nor will Subway's, but they will sure help. By building these streetcar LRT lines, they are going to ensure that subway's are forever dead in...

    Toronto wants subways

    No point in being critical - they obviously have no idea what they are talking about when it comes to the big picture in transportation issues. And you can't hold anything against this person - whoever wrote that is one of many people who are lost at sea when it comes to this type of thing. I'd...

    Metrolinx: Sheppard East LRT (In Design)

    I'm confused. Were they considering the 800m stops only if bus service was in place to pick up people who can't be bothered to walk a maximum of 400m to their LRT stop? 400m is too close. should by between 600-800m while I'm on the topic of close stops... I rode the St Clair ROW...

    Toronto Ontario Line 3 | ?m | ?s

    This is a good idea as the Dufferin bus is the busiest in the City, as well as a waste of TTC resources. At that point, you could extend it to Wilson Yard and if that was ever done, you could then create a square line by extending the Sheppard line west to Downsview and Wilson Yard... the...

    Toronto Ontario Line 3 | ?m | ?s

    For some reason I can see the TTC cutting corners and using the rail corridor from Dufferin up to Dundas West... Keele would bring out all the Nimby's at Parkside... not to mention tearing up dog walker land... I don't think it would go over well with the general public. ---- as for the...

    Toronto Ontario Line 3 | ?m | ?s

    Agreed. Eglinton SHOULD go from Renforth all the way to Kingston. The upgraded SRT would cover Malvern, and down the road, when a Kingston LRT is build, it can travel up Morningside to Malvern. ---- The western part of the DRL is tricky after Dundas West - where would it go after...

    Toronto Ontario Line 3 | ?m | ?s

    The TTC and City should build the DRL now from Eglinton to Dundas West via Queen Street. Forget this Transit City BS.
