Because shiny new high-tech rail infrastructure will make the streets look prettier than some Bus Lanes would! Marketing it as an amazing and necessary $__B investment for Scarborough residents will help Chow secure political support. Rationality is an after-thought for this project.

One location I'd keep an eye on is 4630 Sheppard Ave, right across the street from the future Sheppard East Station.

The road alignments are hard to follow with this one, I can't lie to you

What? surely MCC would be better off served by a branch service of the Milton line right? it makes more sense, doesn't it? since it is cheaper and all? or does it not make sense in Mississauga because that is where you live?

Fortunately, whether or not an option costs less than another isn't the province's sole metric in determining which of the two "makes more sense". Aside from the cost, I don't see any way you can argue for a Stouffville extension to STC making more sense than the Line 2 extension, at least...

Care to elaborate???

A minority government would not work to be an advantage for everyone.

If it really is impossible, then I think permanent bus lanes and BRT (Lite) along the Eglinton East corridor is the answer. I do not support an infill station if it means pushing Eglinton East buses or the EELRT (if it does get built) east to Brimley because of the very common trip and ones like...

The issue with this is that it adds an unnecessary transfer. When line 5 opens, someone travelling from Markham and Eglinton to Midtown will take the bus to Kennedy station, and transfer to the LRT; one transfer, just as it is today. If they rebuilt Kennedy Station and planned to extend Line 5...

Last I recall, the reason that the crosstown could not be extended east of Kennedy, was because of elevation issues at Kennedy station. How could Brimley/Eglinton serve as the new interchange if the Line 5 cannot be extended east? Doesn't this require rebuilding Kennedy station to allow for...

I doubt they'll open in the summer because of all the TTC service changes that need to occur immediately once the crosstown opens, My guess is early September 2025, right before schools open.

hate to be the bearer of bad news...

Alternative angles from Nov 14

Really? Are you sure of this? Last I recall there was virtually no demand along the line 3 ROW that wasn't already adequately served by the 43 and to a lesser extent the 57

The 943 was pulled during the COVID service reductions and hasn't returned due to a lack of resources and demand for the route. We do not know if it will ever return. If it does, I do see it running on the transitway albeit on its peak-only 10-minute weekday headways. After 5 or so years of...
