Would like to see the "express" stops for the route 901 Airport-Eglinton Express.

Counting down the "dies" (English: days), from MMXXV. X.VIII. It seems that long.

That's typical for just about every weekday from 3 to 5 pm. All the way from Sutherland to Leslie. That's where the bottleneck is --- at Leslie. Somehow this was not considered when the road was redesigned for the LRT. Or perhaps it was considered and then ignored.

Yup. As I said before on this forum, they should move the intersection below grade which would grade separate the LRT and only have two phase signal. Eastbound to northbound turns and southbound to eastbound turns. Eglinton through traffic can stay on the surface. The tracks will stay put.

Good point considering how early bus stop poles were replaced, I would imagine new maps after the Oct 12 services changes might include all or most of the changes and maybe an outline of the new lines similar to the TYSSE launch. Eglinton West still needs to be renamed to Cedarvale as well.

The notice is also up for the 88 South Leaside being rerouted onto Eglinton to serve Laird Station.

If anyone knows this area, yes it's the super congested 5-10 minute to get through area for eastbound traffic. This route will suffer in hell.

Can confirm that the notices are up because I got off at a stop with one yesterday. I used to go along that route frequently in the mornings and lane closures around the LRT portal certainly didn’t help, nor the lane setup approaching Brentcliffe. Hopefully the reduction in bus counts post opening will help somewhat.
 
Will the 32D Eglinton West Jane & Emmett bus continue to run UNTIL Line 5 opens? Will the 32D disappear on October 12th? Will BOTH 32D and 73B run along Emmett Avenue until Line 5 opens?

Or will people will have to transfer to a 32A Eglinton bus at Jane & Eglinton or Weston & Eglinton to continue to the Eglinton West Station (I mean Cedarvale Station)?

The people riding the 161 west of Black Creek will wake up to a nightmare when they realize the 171 replaced it and brings them to a No Frills instead. Most of them won't care anyways as they mostly get off by Black Creek to transfer to the 89 for a much faster connection to Line 2. However they will notice their wait time goes from 15-20 minutes to 25-30 minute. I will really suck when someone to travel to Rogers Rd will have to wait up to 30 minutes and transfer to the 161.

Ok. I want to say as someone who uses UPX daily that when Mount Dennis opens this service will basically become a subway.

UPX will be a RAPID TRANSIT Line. Without One Fare Program transfers with your PRESTO.

However, the Mt. Dennis GO Station will accept One Fare Program transfers with the TTC.
