    Ontario Science Centre

    I read this article last week and initially though the same.. However, I challenge the suggestion that they are doing full-on repairs. Just because there is presence of scaffolding, and they fixed a heating system does not imply they are dumping money into this. While it may be the case, the...

    Toronto Rouge National Urban Park Visitor Centre | 6.99m | 1s | Parks Canada | Moriyama Teshima Architects

    A bit of under the radar Friday? news that fits best here: Official Announcement here. I'm unsure which parcels they are proposing to transfer...from the annoucement: Don't know where to find the motion if it has a map... Edit: nobody from Pickering council was present... I am aware the...

    TTC: Other Items (catch all)

    I'm not sure this is a problem they were looking to solve. I did not suggest to model traffic and end up with better predictions. The apps do not deviate much from the route once selected - In my example above, it could have suggested a walk to the next transfer with plenty of time to spare...

    TTC: Other Items (catch all)

    An interesting project. I understand the need for transit apps to differentiate and introduce unique features to stay relevant/useful in the competitive space... However, I wouldn't put knowing the location of trains underground high on the priority list... It's typically the surface routes...

    Pickering Pickering GO Pedestrian Bridge | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx | AECOM

    Unsure what work exactly is happening here... But warranting enough to close sections off. As I can tell from previous posts here, the stairwells are over 13 years old (already?); but I didn't think they were particularily in bad shape. From the GO transit site:

    Road Safety & Vision Zero Plan

    That last one was a customer shuttle from a dealership and not a school bus. The student was waiting for the bus when a man in his 60s had a medical episode and hit her.

    Mayor Olivia Chow's Toronto

    It's actually lower as of 2022 data... Here's the breakdown from here: Remember Toronto CMA...not everyone is going downtown @Northern Light. Here in Pickering opg/lakeridge health... Now fgf? ...not going into the city. Edit: also a good short read here from stats can about Toronto commutes.

    Durham Region Transit / Pulse

    Agenda for the next advisory committee are up. Collisions are high still with nearly 25 percent of bus drivers hired in the last year! Interesting summary of the planned feds transit fund that I hadn't seen anywhere else:

    TTC: Other Items (catch all)

    Odd.. My post on the matter is gone too.

    Pickering Pickering Casino Resort | 51.45m | 15s | Pickering Developments | CGL Architects

    Looks like they will try to get a driving range (page 36) in the area since the film studios were located on Sandy Beach road. Casino lands are directly northeast, Porche experience to the east:

    Danforth Line 2 Scarborough Subway Extension

    I'm pretty sure that was specifically what was asked and they did not even address it lol...I don't think we'll get a straight answer on that either... Which I assume means they aren't on track. Similarly, when I inquired about the return of LSE express trains a few months before the deadline...

    That'll work. Just check schedules there are upcoming closures on LSE Nov 8th weekend.

    Danforth Line 2 Scarborough Subway Extension

    Well it was given context of a reputable member :). That does not jive with: So, if it was indeed planned then my points above are moot... I would have expected something along the lines of: Their perversion of wordsmithing is really something in this instance. Can't take the heat from...

    Danforth Line 2 Scarborough Subway Extension

    I inquired specifically about the rumors being stopped: 'Work is currently paused for planned maintenance' [emphasis added]. Note I don't often take anything they respond with too seriously as it typically has little information... Again, I'm suprised that they are purposefully misinforming.

    A first for me... Typically I get obfuscation, but this seems completely as misinformation.

    Danforth Line 2 Scarborough Subway Extension

    Welcome to UT. Unfortunately, when things go wrong or were poorly planned, Metrolinx sometimes avoids communicating updates/revisions... allegedly because of political pressure/image. Examples include line 5, line 7, GO Lakeshore East express trains. I would bet if you asked them about the...
