Disagree. Workers are a big factor. We cannot absorb enough of our population growth to live near the core employment areas. Something needs to be done to allow for more efficient commuting between the suburbs and core employment areas, and the solution is not just increase the frequency of GO...

I think they should explore the options. Curious to see what it will cost. Do I personally think its a good idea? Probably not. Is it exciting? Yes 😂

There are many reasons that Metrolinx would refuse to open or bypass part of the line. Here are some that I could think of right off the bat: 1)As @T3G mentioned, safety concerns bypassing an active construction site and PR concerns 2)operational efficiency (e.g. causes bottlenecks, confusing...

uhhh ACTUALLY...🤓 the Finch West LRVs will do maintenance at the Finch West LRT Storage and Maintenance facility located at 50 York Gate Boulevard. I understand it is possible you are being facetious 🧐. However, in the case that you are not then I would have attempted to correct you but since I...

Might be a dumb question but... Why are the track slabs next to the platforms painted with green stripes? Is it just for visibility/caution of the tracks when passengers are on the platform or is there another reason?

That is speculative. It is not particularly surprising that they would poll on this. One of the primary objectives of any political party is to get elected and stay elected. It makes sense that they would evaluate and gauge their options to achieve this. However, just because they are doing...

That link does not provide any credibility to the statement you have made. For all intents and purposes, the next election will be in June 2026 barring additional information surfacing prior to that date.

Well aware on the timeline of it. That is mostly a hospital planning thing and does not have to do with the provincial government. The ORs is a bit of a different story. I will pm you. Anyways don't want to get too off topic but I wouldn't consider the situation so cut and dry. There wasn't...

His government is helping fund a major critical care tower expansion at the hospital I work at. This comes after decades of liberal government (since early 2000s) not touching or funding hospitals like the one I work at. So it appears my hospital's leadership was quite pleased with this...

Yes it is but in a way it is also a beauty of engineering that we can design and construct a bridge which spans across much fewer piers and for less construction materials.

That wouldn't be feasible but technically possible. Look at how much closer the piers are in comparison to the Ontario line renders. You'd have to somehow span across the DVP with those piers being much closer together. That would result in a pier placed between every few lanes (not sure how...

They should do the same with fare evaders. Anyone caught fare evading should get their presto card revoked and be forced to walk!

I would prefer they retain a portion of the guideway as a linear park/walk and turn one of the elevated stations into a mini museum on the RT. They could also retain one of the trains at the station for viewing. Unlikely to happen but would be nice if Toronto cared about retaining parts of...

Hazel McCallion/Hurontario Line

Wow painting Ford in a bad light. Does not seem like a politically motivated, overexaggerated and overly emotional post at all. /s

He meant to say costs more than a subway in other parts of the world, which we would not be able to achieve here regardless.

A hockey rink would be pretty fitting for a city in Canada. Perhaps it could be a swimming pool in the summer.

Even easier loophole. They will just pay the CEO in stock options.

Probably need extra space for clearances and the big machines.

That gives enough time during the redevelopment to tunnel that portion of the line. 😂
