Well old TTC plans for bus route changes due to this line stated that the 39 finch East and 199 finch Rocket would be extended to Finch West Station which would sort of alleviate this situation. It would be better than Sheppard bc u would only need one transfer to get across Finch...

Also from approximately 10 am to 11:30 am almost every other train goes out of service at Wilson as these are the additional rush hour trains. This results in significant delays on the Spadina line as each train that goes out of service has to have the operators go through the trains making sure...

Wonder what projects Toronto will fund with these

Brad Ross has already stated on Twitter that York University station would not be bypassed. The buses will be detoured.

The six new stations and the Eglinton West LRT

While this subway extension is a boondoggle wouldn't many of the buses that terminate or serve STC continue to do so even with the Scarborough LRT being built. The LRT will only add two new stations at Centennial College and Sheppard and Markham and i don't see the TTC terminating buses over...

The TTC hasn't mentioned anything about service levels. This is the website for the proposed changes. https://www.ttc.ca/Spadina/About_the_Project/Bus_Route_Changes.jsp

this was the original TTC LRT plan in 1969 to connect the inner suburbs with the subway before the province decided to use the RT technology and screw it up for the next five decades. if this was built we would have a connected network to build upon.

The 107 serves the industrial area east of Keele.

If by some luck they choose to revert back to the original LRT would they have to do a revised EA or could they start construction quickly? I feel like no matter what happens Scarborough will be screwed for the foreseeable future.

This is Jennifer Keesmat arguing for the LRT in 2013

This was basically what former Ontario Transportation Minister Glen Murray proposed but I think it was rejected because it would involve a significant disruption to Kennedy Station and the station would also have to be redesigned for the Crosstown. It seems the city is completely avoiding using...

there will be no Ellesmere GO RER station

you do know that Neethan Shan, the recently elected council member for Scarborough-Rouge River, was backed by the NDP and has worked for them before. You can see him standing behind Tory in all those scarborough subway press conferences. The guy also made that idiot comment about how this would...

The TTC should be careful with using experimental technology. Just look at the RT technology, hybrid buses breaking down too often, the previously used unreliable Ikarus articulated bus. Given the TTC's poor track record of using not fully tried out new technology they should be very cautious...

The TTC had a Transit City Bus Plan with initial plans of simple improvements such as queue jump lanes which I often find to be the biggest delays on a bus route. Buses forced behind cars to wait another signal because they can't enter the right turn lane or reach the bus stop. Signal priority...

Still won't cover all proposed transit projects

This is from tomm TTC board meeting CEO report. Earliest opening date of SSE is now 2026

I took a look at that list on Wikipedia. For many of the cities listed it doesn't include the LRT systems. It doesn't include Calgary, Edmonton, Los Angeles' LRT lines, etc. Seeing that most of Toronto's expansion would be LRT you can't compare Toronto's future rapid transit system with this...
