    Transit Fantasy Maps

    Note that: Fashion District is defined by the area bound by Front, Bathurst, Queen, and Blue Jay Way. For a long time there were many clothiers around Wellington including a sock factory right across from Clarence Square. Connections to the rail corridor were key to that industry at the...

    King Street (Streetcar Transit Priority)

    The half job we have now is clearly the result of finding the minimum viable product. They determined how to spend the least amount of money and found the solution that only used paint, signs, and stoplights adjustments, but nothing truly permanent. Unfortunately, unlike many European old town...

    Sheppard Line 4 Subway Extension (Proposed)

    The situation on Sheppard doesn't justify a subway based on expected utilisation... it justifies a Line 5 style treatment. Unfortunately people really find the idea of right sizing line 4 unpalatable, so we continue to get proposals for extending heavy subway. If the Ontario line through much...

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

    Wow, that is really coming along at a good pace. The benefits of cut-and-cover and not needing to maintain traffic on top.

    Caledon-Vaughan GO Rail Line

    That is what the bus is for. All day service using buses with trains running during periods where the capacity would require it. To warrant all-day frequent service you need all-day destinations on the line, not just a bedroom community. The other lines take you from one urban core to another...

    King Street (Streetcar Transit Priority)

    Thumbs down if you mean one-way the same direction the whole route, but thumbs up if you mean they should go back to the proposal that proposed a mix of alternating . There is already Adelaide and Richmond for one-way traffic. One way streets prioritize cars moving quickly over street life...

    Caledon-Vaughan GO Rail Line

    I think it would only make sense to go to Macville / Caledon Station on the Bolton line, and only during peak periods with bus services replacing the service running all stops Macville to Woodbridge then Vaughan Centre and Concord GO.

    King Street (Streetcar Transit Priority)

    Why would taxis be exempt? A family car with two parents and a kid have more people in them than most taxis. If there is anyone that could remember how to access a location on King with the restrictions it should be a professional driver and they have a meter running so it isn't going to hurt...

    Sheppard Line 4 Subway Extension (Proposed)

    I hope they go back to the plan to have the subway dive south to Scarborough Centre which is an urban growth centre and which gives connections to GO buses and Centennial College/UTSC... ... and find another way to service Malvern such as Scarborough East LRT or Finch East LRT.

    King Street (Streetcar Transit Priority)

    It seems like a Toronto transportation department thing to not tell drivers what they should be doing in a way that is clear. Outside Toronto: Black must turn signs are used, often with a post to hold it out over the road. In Toronto: Everything but that clear black sign hanging over the...

    King Street (Streetcar Transit Priority)

    There needs to be focus on telling the drivers what to do, not all the myriad of things they cannot do. Red light telling them they can't go, signs with lots of words telling them other things they can't do, lights that say these aren't lights for you... but no focus on saying "you must turn...
