Wouldn't surprise me if they cheap out and go with an east/west "annex" option: Instead of under, the annex concourses would be above the tracks. The SkyWalk incorporated into the west annex and the CIBC Square park connected to the east annex.

Probably easier to do cut and cover than elevated, given "Bathurst North" and Sheppard West line 4 platforms will most likely be underground. The transition from underground to elevated will take up couple hundred metres between the two stations.

This stretch of Sheppard is ripe for densification. Should probably include a station between Faywood and Wilson Heights.

Still irks me they call this "subway and streetcar map". At least two lines are neither subway nor streetcars. Just call it "TTC rail transit map".

Seeing how it's mostly off-street, and considering the passenger volume, this is the perfect route for high floor LRVs.

I can't wait for them to expand the main network beyond the 401. It'd do wonders to relief some of the last mile problem.

They do have PSDs at shinkansen platforms, perhaps not network-wide. https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Platforms_of_Tokyo_Station_(T%C5%8Dkaid%C5%8D_Shinkansen)#/media/File:JR-Central-Tokyo-STA_Home14-15.jpg

Without knowing the details, points 1 - 4 might not have prevented this regardless. How was driver impaired? If it's alcohol, what was the reading?

The trains are used for the correct purpose in the case of line 6 - light rail, instead of a light metro.

No idea when OL will open. Somehow I feel had the original DRL gone ahead as planned, it wouldn't reach the same length as OL (Eglinton to west of University) in the same timeframe.

If the milk run is delayed by 5+ min, then you can do the express to milk run transfer at UW.

The fact they are putting in the glass guardrails seem to suggest they are working on the finishing touches - which in the grand scheme of things should not take that much time.

I just realized, any chance the trees may actually be younger than the University line?

One can see the former Toronto/North York border in the middle where red meets blue along the Yonge spine. The south Scarborough ridings - was it the incumbent effect, or the ABC?

There should be less need for 504 to end at Broadview once the new route and OL is up. It should instead terminate at the Port Lands.

Would this drive up the toll even more in the process? Province paying the tolls = more trucks using the route = more traffic = consortium raises toll (even faster) Not sure how much the toll will increase over 20 years if that plays out. That's probably the big variable.

June update: Not much changes on the exterior. The wooden ceiling can be seen at the pool.

Sheppard West has the Don River crossing obstacle. The feeder opportunities are also kind of limited, when compared to Sheppard East. It will only be built for network connectivity and redundancy.

On the other hand, if Brampton citizens are that much against the 413, then more of them should've voted for the NDP incumbents; maybe the highway isn't that big of an issue to them, or they are just indifferent about the whole thing.

Going by that logic, Line 4 extension, all blue ridings along the existing and proposed routing.
