I think a big issue is that Quebec doesn't really return the courtesy, as others have said. Not just with transit announcements, but with signage in general (unlike in Ontario where provincial signage is always bilingual)

Has anyone times Finch West-Humber College with TSP at every intersection? Besides that, what, according to the City, still needs to improve for the line to go faster?

Not entirely sure who the decision rests with but when comparing our fare price with fare prices around the world, our system is very cheap. We should raise fares by at least 5 cents a year for the next 5-10 years. That goes a long way.

The problem is he'd be throwing his buddies under the bus too, even if the contract wasn't signed by his government.

Is there any way to pressure MX to reveal the contract signed? Or, is it up to the province (which will never agree to release it because they're implicated)?

Thank you for the clarification, but that unironically muddies what the City could possibly mean by "Aggressive" TSP even more.

The only verbiage given is the implementation of more "Aggressive" Transit Signal Priority. This "Agressive" TSP is what mayor Chow hinted at being implemented this past week. What was implemented? Phase rotation at a couple intersections. As far as the City and TTC are concerned, anything that...

So having the information we have, why does anyone seem to think we will get anything beyond phase rotation? It's quite clear that the reason that there is phase rotation on only 2-3 intersections each for Line 5 and Line 6 is the same reason there's phase rotation on only 2-3 intersections on...

Reportedly, TSP is only in place at the intersections of Pearldale, Duncanwoods, and and Milady avenue, for now. But besides, Doesn't none of this talk about TSP matter unless the TTC "unpad" their schedules without increasing headways? If the schedules stay padded, wouldn't the trains be...

That's quite an alarming number. Any sources backing up that estimate?

I'm with you there, this actually sounds great LOL. Hold everyone who needs to be held accountable, accountable; no matter the cost. You wanna take the other side of that debate and say it's not worth the time and money? Great! Simply fire the upper management and executives at Metrolinx, and...

Lali seemingly just confirmed that TSP in May should have phase rotations. May have misheard.

It feels so surreal that this is happening... I would be scouring this thread for the last few years looking at what people would be saying about the line, and have learned so much from everyone here; to think that people could be riding as soon as this Sunday...
