I believe the RHVP has enough room in the median to accommodate a widening. One side is already 3 lanes from Greenhill Rd to Upper RHVP intersection. Widening of the 403 should be done before any widening of RHVP/Lincoln parkways.

I understood the announcement as limited service to Confederation GO with no information about hourly service, maybe I am misunderstanding or missing information?

Casualty of the condo collapse.

I was curious: Welland, Ontario (City) ≈ 81.16 km² Ward 2, Hamilton ≈ 6.14 km² That would be 9,771 people per sq km. For comparison: Vancouver (Downtown) 18,837 Toronto (Downtown) 16,608 Montréal (Downtown) 8,367 Calgary (Downtown) 7,778

Once the LRT is completed and running for a decade, I predict ward 2 population to reach 60,000. 2021 stats say 37,080.

Imagine how many more towers there would be downtown if city hall was not an impediment to development during the condo rush.

1. 30 min frequency to Confederation GO. 2. 20 minutes +/- 2 min from Aldershot to Confederation GO.

Economic considerations should always be forefront. Those freight lines are the backbone of international and domestic trade, sacrificing them for passenger rail would be an economic loss that would negatively impact businesses and jobs. Your proposal would be a net economic loss (any economic...

Anyone have information on when the Confederation GO station will be completed this year? Nothing really available public besides "sometime this year".

- Building HSR to Windsor meets the "nation building project" criteria being touted by the federal government - 1 hour and 15 minutes to Union would allow Londoners to commute to Downtown Toronto offices 2-3x a week. People already commute longer than this that live within the GTA. 2-3x a week...

With hourly service and 30 minute service soon at this station, one would think developers would be eager to build here.

You misunderstood my point. 413 taking over the 407 along the pathway I highlighted would result in reduced tolls (maybe no tolls eventually?) and divert traffic off the currently congested QEW/403 portion.

It could be worth the cost considering how much traffic could be alleviated taking highways off the QEW through Burlington/QEW.

Do you guys think once 413 is completed, the government would buy the 407 from the 401 interchange to QEW, rename it to 413, and then rename the 403 through Mississauga as 410? Always seemed logical to me 403 should start at the Burlington exchange.

This neighborhood will have a 15-20 minute bus connection to Confederation GO station and be less than 10 minute drive away. Good to see density built here. 10,000 people already live in this neighborhood, with the completion of this project and 399 Greenhill too, there should be discussion...
