    Toronto Union Pearson Express | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx | MMM Group Limited

    As someone who lives pretty much on top of College Station, I can say that I don't save that much time taking UPX. I don't have a Metropass so I have to pay my token either way and once i'm on the subway I might as well just continue to the 192 Rocket. I have to transfer at Bloor or...

    How much does your parking spot cost?

    At Encore/The Met at Yonge/Carlton I believe our spaces were $40k (I didn't get one).

    Toronto Crosstown LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx | Arcadis

    Exactly. I give directions to Yonge/College and nobody is going to get confused and go to Yonge/Steeles because they both have Yonge in the name. Or alternately, saying I live in the "Garden District" tells you nothing. You'd be like, "Where???" and I would clarify with corner of Yonge/College.

    Toronto Crosstown LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx | Arcadis

    Why can't we just name them by the major cross streets and be done? When you are giving directions it's just Bathurst (on Line 2 or on Line 5). Done. I hate to agree with them, (since they sounded so clueless in those quotes) but I've lived at Yonge/College for 7 years (and...

    Councillor Ford? Is that you?

    TTC: Flexity Streetcars Testing & Delivery (Bombardier)

    I don't think this was discussed yet, but yesterday (Sunday) some time between 11:30am and noon I saw 4409 on Queen Street at Church. I was shocked to see it so I fumbled with my camera phone to take a pic before it could pull away. What's not pictured is that there seemed to be about 4-5...

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

    What's with the spelling of Yonge St as Younge St in that document? Strange!

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    These grammar tweets are driving me crazy today. Rob and Doug say so many incorrect things, but the staffer who wrote that was correct. It's "Join Rob and me" not "Join Rob and I". You wouldn't say "Join I" so you don't say "Join Rob and I".

    TTC Cartography, Signage, and Wayfinding

    Pointing that out didn't make you a dick, calling me a liar and then saying you were surprised I thought you were being polite made you a dick. I've seen you constantly argue with people on here when you don't agree with them, and now that you've argued with me even though you agree with me...

    TTC Cartography, Signage, and Wayfinding

    I don't owe a response to anyone who's being a dick, but I'm going to respond anyway. I never said it was my last 100 subway rides. In fact, I walk to work so I'm not on during rush hour when people who normally take the subway (and are therefore used to it) ride. I take it mostly on the...

    TTC Cartography, Signage, and Wayfinding

    Saying sorry before calling me a liar doesn't make it any more polite. Besides, it doesn't matter if you believe me or not. If you don't think it's an issue then it doesn't concern you and you don't have to worry about what I think/do.

    TTC Cartography, Signage, and Wayfinding

    Holy crap. If you think no one cares, and the TTC won't listen anyway then I can't understand how it affects you in the least and therefore can't for the life of me figure out why you constantly have to regurgitate that the TTC won't do anything. Great, then you don't have to worry about what...

    TTC Cartography, Signage, and Wayfinding

    Great then it's none of your concern if I'm wasting my own time so I'll just keep doing what I'm doing.

    TTC Cartography, Signage, and Wayfinding

    Well obviously many people disagree so I will continue what I'm doing.

    TTC Cartography, Signage, and Wayfinding

    No light bulbs have to change, they all light up with both colours, therefore no cost to change bulbs. It's about doing things PROPERLY to make things intuitive. To improve wayfinding. I guess I just find it important to be as clear as possible instead of accepting things that are wrong.

    TTC Cartography, Signage, and Wayfinding

    Because like you said you got used to it so you can use it. But wayfinding is for people to find their way when they don't know where they're going. It's not for people like you who are "used to it" and know where you're going. Therefore, a map should be logical, intuitive, etc so that people...

    TTC Cartography, Signage, and Wayfinding

    But it's not because blue and purple don't have decades of GO and STOP associated with them like green and red respectively. If that's the case lets just change the stop lights to red means go and green means stop cuz six of one...

    TTC Cartography, Signage, and Wayfinding

    Honestly apparently more people outside the forum care because I have a bunch of friends who have independently brought this up as a pet peeve just from riding the subway. They have no interest in transit, unlike how the people on the forum are interested yet are responding and arguing against...
