Kerr was cancelled by Metrolinx because it was going to cost $230 million. Any other grade crossings aren’t on Metrolinx’s radar for separation, and it’s up to the Town to fund it. Chartwell was been proposed for a flyunder in Oakville’s Midtown Plan update.

Though what you propose (and what has been talked about lots here) is a good idea, it’s really not a priority compared to other regional projects. I’d rather GO focus on establishing service to new locales, like Brantford, Bolton, and a proper London Extension.

So great to see track laying south of the 403 ramping up.

Oh that’s really really cool. The 905 has some real gems.

Yes, it will be great. The UP Express won’t stop here, but the GO Pearson Line will.

April Fool’s update:

Was digging through MERX - found this interesting tidbit about the Line 5 West Extension. Looks like Metrolinx will put out a competitive tender for additional Line 5 trains. Mixed Line 5 LRV fleet incoming? From the Stations, Systems, and Rail tender. Edmonton is doing a mixed fleet for the...

The current plan has the West Harbour tracks tying back into the CN mainline around the Mary Street pedestrian bridge IIRC.

Well the good news is that it looks track-ready. What might slow it down is 1) the date CN has in mind for cutting it into their mainline and 2) the signalling commissioning date. I would assume that both those events are already scheduled and even if track laying happens tomorrow, those dates...

It might look rough, but the Ontario Line will offset the lost tree’s environmental impacts thousands of times over.

Found this on Facebook. CN is cleaning up its old Paynes Sub in St. Thomas. It was completely overgrown and impassable in recent years. It connects to the opposite side of St. Thomas from the VW plant, but has an old yard on it. CN might be planning to use it to store or marshal cars for the plant.

I would suggest "inter-urban" or "inter-city". Sorry to nitpick. "Interurban" makes me think of this:

Well that’s good news. I hope that if we can get a few Golden Mile projects off the ground, it creates momentum for others.

I wouldn’t read too much into it. Graphic designers aren’t transit planners and most of the rendering work isn’t done in-house.
