Also on social media everyone is complaining how slow it is. Hopefully this will lead to TSP being fully implemented on all LRT and streetcar lines.

Yes I am hoping this will lead to Transit priority on all LRT and Streetcar lines

Took 3 vehicles on the line, the first 2 were the slowest transit vehicle i have ever been on. This includes busses and streetcar. What made it worst was that the stations were on the far side of the intersection. So we would slow down getting to every red light. Then crawl through the...

Look at these design for the station, it doesn't look complicated it's just a platform, a canopy and a 1 storey elevator. this shouldn't take more than a year to build right???

Related to this comment, why are silos the one building type that can not be demolished in this city. I personally think they are ugly especially at our waterfront and housing would be a much better use of valuable land.

What effect do city councilors have on the pace of bike share expansion in their wards? like do they have a veto on expansion in their wards?

US lost the 2022 bid to Qatar, so they included Canada and Mexico to guarantee they got 2026 since CONCACAF was the confederation that didn't host a world cup for the longest at the time (sorry OFC).

Funny thing about opening the line at 7:00am at Finch west is that the first subway train to reaches Finch west at 7:56 a.m on Sunday

But this is due to zoning not the transit. the same can be said for the bloor line. if the city allows density anywhere int he city it will be filled by developers. If the city wants to densify allow the Allen it will happen if they change the zoning for the area.

Substantial completion will happen 2 weeks earlier (1 week after RSD) on Eglinton than it did on Finch. So a 2025 opening is still in the cards.

Revenue Service Demonstration (RSD) on the Eglinton Line began on October 7, 2025, so it's been 47 days since the 30 day demonstration began, and 29 days since the resumption of testing on Oct 25. If they restarted RSD on Oct 25 then Nov 24 should be the end of RSD. But Metrolinx claimed they...

Finch West was already the busiest bus route in the city. attractive riders wouldn't be a problem with this lines. Weston to Jane is where car traffic is a problem so the LRT will blow past cars at this section.

Zoning is what determines density in Toronto not Transit.
