I'm just reporting what Natural Surveillance is as term for policing and design. It's specifically about people's sense of security in knowing where other things and especially other people are. It's about people fearful of someone hiding behind a pillar that could attack you. It's about...

Can you provide a link to the report? The Good Neighbour policies concern with being transparent and sociable and communicative with the community and within it. Like a policy that encourages socialization with neighbours. Like a policy that the TTC is transparent in information with the...

A quick Google search will easily answer your question of what natural surveillance is. "Natural surveillance is a design strategy that is directed at keeping intruders under observation. Designing for natural surveillance involves providing ample opportunity for legitimate users, engaged in...

Agreed, I've used Purple a lot and it's mostly empty. There just doesn't seem to be that much need for people to use Viva to get across York Region when most people would rather sit in their own car. Highway 7 is just too car-friendly to get people off cars and into busses. Though, if there is...

No. A bit of misinformation in your post. Finch is not going to be reduced from 4 to 2 car lanes. It will stay 4 lanes but with 2 LRT lanes also. As well, there is most certainly not enough demand to make it a subway, which costs and construction time would greatly increase.

It's a more reasonable transit map. I could make an "ultimate" transit map with subways only, but I would like to make a map that is more achievable, logical, and hopeful. I prefer a Sheppard and Eglinton LRT over a subway on the basis of cost, ROW, and possible ridership. I would think a...

Yeah lol, I did not put Kirby or Lawrence because of the controversy over those two at the moment and whether they will get built at all.

On special request: :)

Heya, I made a couple of maps for a future GO Train system. Current map: Future map with many recommended stations: Super duper future map with new lines:

Not an oversight, but choice. I chose to retire the 504 King as the DRL is likely to be aligned on Roncesvalles, so I see no need to double the road with both streetcar and subway. Same reason the 502 Downtowner is not listed as most of the route would be taken up by the Queen-aligned DRL.

This is my fantasy streetcar map.

Heya, here's my interpretation of the 407 Transitway with extensions on the 427, 412, and 418.

I made a comprehensive fantasy map of all the Eglinton LRT projects. I know you are wondering why there is no LRT connection to the airport, but in my regionwide plan, I would have Line 2 be extended up the 427 to Renforth and into the Pearson instead of the LRT.

It's a fantasy map to be clear.

Yes, I know that is the official plan, but I extended it a bit further in my map because of the future denser developments further east on Highway 7.

Hey, back again with moar new fantasy maps. I'll like to see Viva be just naturally extended on Yonge into Bradford and East Gwillimbury. The Highway 7 map is pretty much what has been announced with some changes.

Yeah, there is practical no development potential on Airport Road, but the Rexdale alignment I think would be more preferable than going south on Highway 27 and turn west on Dixon. Atleast with the Rexdale and Airport route, the LRT can connect to the residential community of Malton whereas...

Hey, back again with another new map. I updated my map of the Finch West LRT as one comprehensive map. Again, I hope it looks official.

Yeah, it's quite ambiguous whether it is curbside or centre-aligned full stations. Probably because the Steeles rapid transit is also further along in the planning schedule. Also doesn't this project also need to have approval from the city of Toronto too, so this project may take quite...

This is my interpretation of the Waterfront LRT from Long Branch Station to Union Station. It will also use the existing streetcar tracks from Humber Loop to Colborne Lodge where it will turn onto the Lake Shore and go past Ontario Place then on Fort York/Bremner into Union Station. I used the...
