Toronto Eglinton Line 5 | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx | Arcadis

All I see here are three transit operators: MBTA, GO and the TTC

And I thought the T was for Translink.

There's nothing wrong with coming up with a standardized symbol. But only if they are serious about it. And how white on glass 50 feet over the door is a good idea I don't know.

Speaking of Mount Dennis, it's nice to see you can walk through the back door to get to transit!

The more this "T" signage gets plastered everywhere, the more and more idiotic Metrolinx rationale for choosing it becomes apparent.

That is a weird usage of the T.
It shouldn't be the corporate identifier.
It should be strictly a wayfinding sign.

The SEPTA-like arrows still remain at Pickering GO from the wayfinding pilot project that’s maybe from 4-5 years ago. Not to mention all the signage and maps are now ridiculously out of date.

Only 4-5 years? They still haven't put the current 10-year old logos with the bigger T in many, if not most, of the stations. At least 3 different GO 'T' Logos, with earlier shades of Green.

Though hard to tell, given how madly some of the greens fade in the sun.

New signage and wayfinding systems are purposefully incomplete so consultants have a future pipeline of work

Honestly it's probably not as far fetched as it would seem. There's probably a fair bit of padding on the contracts and construction schedules to keep contractors employed

So summer officially ended and there's no opening date.

I guess the new Minister of Transportation is still trying to figure out what "transportation" means. Or will they be the next one to resign...........?

Not true. There's still today and tomorrow.

A Friday announcement might make sense…?

You maybe lucky to hear something before Nov, but more like some time in Dec if you read the write up on it correctly

Media has noticed.

Metrolinx update on Eglinton Crosstown LRT opening delayed

Phil Verster, CEO of Metrolinx, said in August there would be an update by the end of summer, which is Saturday.

I want Phil Verster to resign. What a ******* embarrassment. Delay the announcement to announce the update on the much delayed Line 5, its a public project people deserve to know why it will not open for another year.
