    Richmond Hill Yonge Line 1 North Subway Extension | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    These days $200 doorbells can tell not just between a person and an animal but they can even tell who that person is if you give sufficient access to the software. And of course, they can tell if that person is within the zone you specified or outside of it, answering your straying concern. Cars...

    Roads: Ontario/GTA Highways Discussion

    Bridge across Lake Ontario would also be twice as long and need to be a lot wider. Talking about MTO's tunnel plan, it doesn't save any distance, it goes along the lake shore. Why didn't they plan it diagonally so save some distance?

    Vaughan 7800 Jane | 192.93m | 60s | Aspen Ridge | BDP Quadrangle

    You are comparing a city vs a country. Cities have higher density and stop lights vs exurbs and countryside.

    Roads: Ontario/GTA Highways Discussion

    I doubt the land under the roadway would still be in a good condition for farming. What if mid-pen becomes congested again and MTO realizes narrowing QEW was a waste. Would you prefer them acquiring the farmland back again to widen QEW? Infrastructure has become much more expensive to build...

    GTHA Transit Fare Integration

    If they go for zone based fare as some people suggested, it will be a major rework.

    Toronto The Pemberton | 215.79m | 68s | Pemberton | a—A

    There should be a plaque commemorating the hole and celebrating its legacy.

    Toronto Union Station Revitalization | ?m | ?s | City of Toronto | NORR

    People are becoming more superficial with time and showing off their "perfect life" on Instagram has become an obsession. Many people undertake new experiences not for their enjoyment but for sharing the photos.

    Toronto Union Station Revitalization | ?m | ?s | City of Toronto | NORR

    This is not limited to Toronto, it happens everywhere. When Tim Hortons opened in China, there were queues for it.

    Toronto Pinnacle One Yonge | 345.5m | 105s | Pinnacle | Hariri Pontarini

    You can say that The One will be higher than Sky Tower, but calling The One taller will be factually incorrect.

    GO Transit: Construction Projects (Metrolinx, various)

    I don't know if this was technically feasible or not but it would have made sense to have Ontario line interchange with Kitchener and Barrie lines. That interchange station would have been more useful than King Liberty or Spadina Front stations. It would have helped disperse the commuters better...

    GO Transit: Construction Projects (Metrolinx, various)

    Will King-Liberty station have an interchange with Ontario Line?

    Toronto The One | 328.4m | 91s | Mizrahi Developments | Foster + Partners

    That will last only until we start building 400 m tall buildings (assuming Jessie Ketchum school is no longer there).

    That extra Milton train is not showing on GO website as of yet.

    Toronto Bloor-Yonge Station Capacity Enhancement | ?m | ?s | TTC | AECOM

    I mean it won't enough for that extension but it won't be far from the total cost if the line continues to be elevated.

    Toronto Bloor-Yonge Station Capacity Enhancement | ?m | ?s | TTC | AECOM

    Is this project already funded and happening or are we still deciding its merits? With Ontario Line and GO RER happening, there will be some load off this station but may not be sufficient enough to make the station safe enough. But now the bigger question is not the alternate routes but the...

    Eglinton East LRT | Metrolinx

    Why would the bus terminate sooner when it can go a couple of km extra and provide direct connection to another subway line at STC or even Agincourt? TTC can decide to modify its bus routes. It won't cost $1 billion per km to extend a bus route like it takes for a subway. Whether TTC does it not...

    Eglinton East LRT | Metrolinx

    With my iteration, the LRT is not ending at McCowan; it's continuing westward until it meets Sheppard subway at the point where Sheppard subway veers off Sheppard. It's still one transfer, the only different is that it's happening somewhere west of McCowan. They can still take the bus to the...
