Regarding the new 96 service to the Zoo, I just noticed it costs less for seniors to go from NYCC to STC via GO than the TTC. I am sure the same will be true for Zoo trips.

My take on this, at York Mills and Don Mills it's green space on at least two quadrants - very limited development potential; while at the Richmond Hill corridor, at least the industrial strip along Leslie is also within reasonable distance. The location is just more centralized.

Agree. I'd think most people who oppose to renaming do so not because they want to honour Henry Dundas. To them it's more akin to the SkyDome rename debacle. "Dundas West" in Toronto is The Junction, Little Portugal, Chinatown, Eaton Centre.

I think it just ensures the canopy will not overhang beyond the platform, unless it clears the vertical clearance.

What I get from guide, the illegible LRV icon is for streetcars. Line 5 is using the front facing icon (and eventually switched over to the LRT/subway icon) that we should already recognize. That however will re-open the topic of whether Line 6 is considered rapid transit. It seems misleading...

Off topic, but I envy systems that have uncluttered passenger information display layout.

The Exhibition station building looks way bigger than just a bridge. If they are smart, they'd make that the concourse with shops, sort of like what they do at some Asian stations; maybe add a roof top park while at it.

Staying on Don Mills - possibility of serving the Peanut if line goes up to Finch. Using the rail ROW - serves the Lesmill employment area I'd prefer the second option, because the Peanut will still be served by frequent 25 Don Mills regardless.

Even better if it'll have the same operating hours as the now closed Newtonbrook store.

There's an existing rail corridor at Riverdale/Leslieville along the OL routing. Doesn't have one for the Yonge extension - except for the final section at Richmond Hill, which requires a new route to connect with Yonge. Please suggest an alternative that doesn't involve expropriation.

If in your opinion NYCC has uninteresting street level spaces, then you'll most likely be disappointed. This seems to be a cross of Downtown Markham and NYCC.

Doesn't make sense to remove the existing parking. Nothing can be built there anyways. Might as well keep it as overflow parking. Even better if they can get a pedestrian bridge over Esther Shiner Blvd and connect to the new parking.

Here are two shots of Agincourt from last week.

Everything was a decimal place cheaper. I love seeing how cent was the base unit for most food prices - dollar was a rarity.

Was speaking more in terms of 404 southbound to 401 eastbound.

I don't think the 401-404-DVP interchange can take any more additional traffic.

Doesn't that tie into the assumption of line 5 bringing massive ridership increase along the Eglinton corridor?

If they are using TBMs, won't they need a launch/extract site north of Finch anyways? One would think there'd be an opportunity to build the section from Finch to Cummer as cut-and-cover, and launch the TBMs from there.

Interesting how Eglinton has lower average ridership than Sheppard-Yonge. It does have multitudes of bus routes and nearby density.

I believe only the progressives care about that; and given how the city voted in Tory, the minority. Time does fly, it's almost 3 years ago.
