    Ottawa Transit Developments

    Except Ottawa wasn't a Metrolinx projet and unlike with Waterloo they didn't take a deal with Metrolinx to provide the cars for them. Waterloo when they decided to take the order expected that they would get them after Toronto already had them on at least one line which would have been the...

    Ottawa Transit Developments

    Also it was Metrolink going by timelines that include two lines that weren't being bult anymore. Bombardier was smart to hold off on them because there was no where for them to be delivered too unless Metrolink had some field somewhere that they wanted them delivered too. I never believed the...

    They have them on the drivers end on line 2 as well.

    Hamilton Hamilton Line B LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    there is a defiance between adding security camaras and digital display boards though, sometimes its;' cheaper to just relace them at some point the rebuld them. Plus I don't think we arer going to see them around for as long as the CLRV's and ALRV's were

    Hamilton Hamilton Line B LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    I'm not really sur if they can use the Alstom Cidantas sprit on the crosstown as the stations were all designed for the Flexity and not the Alstom cars with it's terrible door placement. Metrolink was incredible dumb and wasteful when they made the deal for them and everyone of the people who...

    Toronto Crosstown LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx | Arcadis

    Whatever I'm not going to argue about this as it's getting pointless. I understand that some people it might make a difference for but for others they don't really care or notice it.

    Toronto Crosstown LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx | Arcadis

    I have been to many stations in rush hour and the problem isn't the gates it's the people who don't have their presto cards ready and are standing in front of the gate, it's also the people who think they have to wait until the gate closes before they tap or the people who tap on the screen or...

    Hamilton Hamilton Line B LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    It's unfortunate because they need a major redesign to make them a better LRT..

    Toronto Crosstown LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx | Arcadis

    I don't rely car about that either but for some pole it seem to be import that we should do everything like every other transit agency does without look at the context of this. For example the LRT trains aren't likely to have video screens in them because they weren't ordered with them so...

    Toronto Crosstown LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx | Arcadis

    Only too a few people who actually notice them. I hate to break it to you but the average person using the TTC doesn't care about what type of fare gates it is as long as it takes their fare, look at how many different ones we used to have before the current ones. Basically from what people are...

    Toronto Crosstown LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx | Arcadis

    Whatever I'm just trying to say that other than a few people who know about that no one actually cares as long as they work and we actually can get into the stations and we can also find out how transfers between the existing TTC stations will be. It doesn't matter what type of fare gates they...

    Hamilton Hamilton Line B LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    Hopefully they come up with a better design then the one that Metrolinx overpaid for, although I doubt they will.

    Finch West Line 6 LRT

    They aren't duplicate name it' because when Toronto was laid out it was decided that streets west of Younge would be called the street name and West and streets eat of Younge would be called East if they continued across the city as the same street. For the most part except for on the university...

    Toronto Crosstown LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx | Arcadis

    How on earth can anyone tell a difference between them. When I was in Ottawa last summer they seemed to be identical to the TTC ones. Also why does anyone really car what the fare gates look like? The more impart question is how are people going to be using them especially in stations where you...

    Metrolinx: Other Items (catch all)

    Considering that the TTC only ever had one joint meeting with them and hasn't been able to schedule one again despite them asking multiple times I don't see the Caty of Toronto doing much better.
