More signage that needs fixing: I notice most bus platforms on Line 5 have signs that just show the bay number, not the bus routes that use them. You have to search for a sign on a wall that shows which routes use which bays. Anyone who isn't a daily rider on any given route, will probably...

Over the last 5 years, side streets in this stretch immediately to the east of Don Mills Road have been intensely modified with cycle lanes, and I presume this was done as a substitute for a lane on Don Mills itself. Also, that stretch of Don Mills has had a 1-person-per-car ban in the right...

I notice the big bus lot with extra platforms to the south (nearer to the viewer) and with places for buses to turn around, has been reduced, and what looks like parkland restored between the bus corridor and Eglinton. Is that really the plan? I recall they said the infamous standing stone...

I'm sure they could have drawn it at a weird angle to avoid showing what's right behind it!

CityNews website just posted a quick story on today's announcement. Points stated, and my reaction: The province will not commit to an opening date for the new subway line currently under construction in Toronto. But Metrolinx CEO Michael Lindsay says they plan to open the Ontario Line by the...

They just need one of these.

There's a green one, and a blue one, another green one, and a yellow one, and they're all made out of ticky-tacky and they all look just the same.

What we have here is not a disagreement of opinion, but rather, a disagreement on how important it is. At the risk of going off topic with a personal anecdote (it's okay, I do it all the time), I remember being in a grocery check-out line with an older person who was asked by the cashier if they...

'Scuse me for replying for somebody else, but as I interpreted it, that is indeed what T3G was saying - but with sarcasm.

With all due respect, people can complain about whatever they feel is worth complaining about.

I don't recall seeing alcohol ads on buses and trains in the past. I wonder if they relaxed the rules recently, or if control of TTC ads has been privatized with different standards. Sorry to hear about your AF reaction; I've never heard of it before. The article shows facial markings. I...

Okay, so "Line 3 Bus Replacement" means a busway replacing Line 3, not a busway as replacement that is going to be called Line 3. That's probably the explanation, but it sure is ambiguous! In Wikipedia's article for line 3, the final paragraph calls it the Line 3 Busway, and perhaps the writer...

Drone on! (er, you know what I mean).

Thanks to you and Nottoban for posting that map. Interestingly, it does show the elevator which I suspect won't be put in use for years, but does not show a western entrance to the bus bay building, which I assume will finally open at the same time as that elevator.

11th, can you point me to the station map for Don Valley? I'd be interested to see if they show the features I was griping about above.
