    Toronto Pearson International Airport

    No one should be parked/stopped curbside at a terminal for 20 minutes....5 tops. If picking up....you sit in the provided cell phone lot until the passenger you are picking up is ready to be picked up and then you scoot in, say hello, load their bags and move on. When dropping off, it can't...

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

    Honestly, pretty standard language in a CCAA filing....the whole point of CCAA is to protect a company from creditor action while they come up with a plan to restructure/re-invent the company. The next steps are time bound and are aimed at them coming up with a plan of arrangement for the court.

    Mississauga Hurontario-Main Line 10 LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    I am sure it can....but it impacts cost...how much, I don't know but surely building a terminus station at Steeles and then extending it further must come with some cost....no? The alternative is to wait and I am not sure how long you wait until the whole tunnel is studied and the new mayor...

    Mississauga Hurontario-Main Line 10 LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    Brampton had a change of heart? Brampton did have a change of government....is that what you mean? That new government has suggested they will revisit the Main Street route....but the new council seemed to say that was conditional on a) a tunnel through “old Brampton” and b) an extension...

    Mississauga Mississauga Transitway | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx | IBI Group

    So, total ridership is up 2.6% to ~40 million.....so it is up about 1 million. Of the 40 million, 4.7million were on Transitway....which is a 14% increase.....so about 600k of the 1 mil increase.......so the rest of the system saw 400k increase (about 1.1%).....is that what the numbers say?

    How do other people in other cities who live a bit off the path of rapid transit lines connect to those lines?

    GO Transit: Construction Projects (Metrolinx, various)

    Just as a follow up.....this is why we should question things......according to the Metrolinx financial report for the year ending March 31 2017 ....if their operating costs were reduced to zero it would still take over 35 years to save $35B.....put another way, how does an organization with...

    heard on the radio just now that Woodbine is paying 100% of the cost of the new station....is that correct?

    Over what period of time would these savings of $35B be achieved?

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

    ^^I can be critical of Metrolinx just as much as the next guy......but there is no foundation for that post at all. Yes, Union station has been delayed....some of it (i would suggest) is understandable (in renovating any old building the saying goes "you don't know what you have until you get...

    Mississauga Hurontario-Main Line 10 LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    And now I have seen renderings (along with another 133k s.f. that will be on the same site...sorry for the quality (phone photo of a newspaper insert).

    Mississauga Hurontario-Main Line 10 LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    I assume what gets eliminated is the 103.....replaced by the LRT and the 19 remains to provide local service.

    GO Transit: Service thread (including extensions)

    I am neither clever or a fraudster but no one would catch me......my presto card stays in my wallet and I tap my wallet.....the only time I have to take my card out (for some reason) is when being fare checked on UP....other than that, I am just tapping my wallet....who would/could know what...

    GO Transit: Service thread (including extensions)

    I got the impression that the abuse of the kiddies presto card was on the subway....since you have to tap to get into the subway I don't sense they are fare checking there as much as they are on streetcars (since the gates are seen as an obstacle to fare evasion) but if the wrong type of card is...

    GO Transit: Service thread (including extensions)

    I am wondering how, or if, they separated out the increase in ridership caused by the increased levels of service as opposed to the increase in ridership caused by the kids ride free pilot.
