The old cyan line 3 colour is perfect: distinct from line 2 green and line 4 purple.

Here in Toronto we have a proud tradition of terrible wayfinding. Albion Rd? Forward and to the right. Weston Rd? Forward and to the left, but the road goes down, so we have to have a down arrow, apparently. It's right under this sign, get it? Drivers coming off the 401 ramp have about 63...

Question about that corridor work west of Danforth you mentioned; what's going on there exactly? I pass it every day and I wonder, is it a GO project, an Ontario Line project or both?

^ Correct. I checked Costco out because I live in the area and had never been to one before. Came away unimpressed. I noticed that the sidewalks that exist are wider than they need to be, but they don't connect enough places.

Agreed. There are much better redevelopment candidates in Toronto than this yard. There are failing malls, boarded-up homes and businesses and empty parking lots in Toronto right now, most of which are better served by existing transit and are closer to the downtown core than an active railyard...

Went for a walk and checked out Canadian Tire and Costco today. My review: The complex is horrifically inaccessible by the standards of a new build. I noticed a serious lack of ramps and few curb cuts. There were stairs everywhere. Also, the only way in or out of the whole complex seems to be...

Question about the great hall: the section near front street that seems to be cordoned off by temporary walls but has also been there as long as I can remember, what is/was that? It almost seems permanent, with art and security cameras mounted on it, but there's no rhyme or reason for it...

How much longer is his contract?

If it's actually happening:

How the hell did we get to 2023 before this obvious policy was implemented? And how the hell was DOUG FORD the guy that eventually made it happen? Didn't this very government kill the Wynne-era partial fare integration?

From the city that brought you the counter-flow sharrow... (Which no one has bothered to report and still exists at Bergamot/Islington).

Can't wait to see Hydrogen Trains on Line 1! 😉

Living there will be hell. So stupid to have residential here. Keep it industrial. A busy rail line, 2 highways, and car-oriented shopping complexes right next to you. Oh and it's only a 700+ metre walk to the bus stop.

Where are the 15-foot shelves packed to the ceiling? The merchandise littering the floor of the aisles? The exit maze? Doesn't look like any Canadian Tire store I've seen.

A valid concern. The fact of the matter is that land in many areas of the city is just too valuable nowadays for low-density industrial/commercial uses. For what it's worth, the airport employment lands will probably always stay low-rise industrial, because of height limits as well as noise...

Soon with electrification, this will happen during every blackout.

Build the MSF near Western. There's a huge parking lot and open field at Western Rd/Brescia Dr.

^ it does extend to masonville also that's probably a bit ambitious as a phase 1 as is. It simply isn't realistic to also have an extension to White Oaks, that would probably require an entirely new line.

But it would have involved either buying a dedicated new fleet compatible with a new type of signaling system or retrofitting the old fleet for the same purpose, right? Not trivial.

never I once saw someone sitting on the edge of the platform dangling their legs off the edge. That's it.
