Something fishy going on...for a second year in a row... http://www.thestar.com/news/city_hall/2014/12/05/city_sees_loss_of_296_million_in_declining_number_of_traffic_tickets.html That's a 10 cent fair increase worth of inaction - just this year...plus the lack of action caused more...

What about the transit police, there was a thing a while back about them being un-deputized due to corruption...something about writing tickets to people who were already in jail and then going golfing for the day...I think they were re-deputized after a new leader was hired...are they...

I have noticed a trend over last few years of increased calls for enforcement (including in John Tory's State of the City press conference last week) but not seeing much improvement. There was discussion at the beginning of the year of a decrease (30%) in the number of tickets being written...

One at a time? This could take decades! The first thing that needs to be done is that there needs to be a study done now, to determine which stations, what are the pre-requisites for each station, what the design will be and what the issues are. Then while ATC is being implemented we need...

I'm wondering what the prospects for platform doors are once ATC is done...I would assume that the downtown U would get them first, but of those how many stations is it actually possible to put them in? I imagine some requirements would be: - Multiple platform exits (ie not dundas) in case of...

Just speculating, but I wonder if the strike affected things more than is being let on - especially on the supply chain side...I would imagine that they stopped taking shipments of parts - both for logistical reasons (there is no-one there to receive them) and practical reasons (there is no more...

It also seems people are assuming we are buying only one multi-million dollar piece of equipment, not 100's of them, totalling Billions of dollars over many years, built by many different people...they have just been built, put on a train and driven across Ontario...parts of them are coming from...

I assume that the fair enforcement will ramp up... 1) Show up - be visible and talk to customers - don't give out any tickets 2) Warn - let people know that they broke the rules, tell them what the rules are, don't give them a ticket 3) Delay - talk to them for a while, explain the rules -...

Wonder if there are any opportunities with the bus station moving to the south (I'm guessing essentially it would have an entrance/exit to lakeshore directly) to include a streetcar loop for the East Bayfront as well...just wondering if that would save having to tunnel and expand the loop exists...

Anyone know if there is a plan for the TTC to recreate this photo with the new flexity's?

Does the city keep a consolidated list of delays and who caused them? Maybe someone should start keeping an excel spreadsheet on the "trouble makers" and publish it to a major newspaper or something...

There are plenty of examples of large museums and science centres that aren't close to subways...Udvar Hazy is a good example, Toronto Science Center, Chicago Science Center (the one with the u-boat) is not exactly close to downtown...but as a way to spur development, it would be great...it...

I guess if they are using the first floor to park cement trucks they won't be opening the retail level until they are mostly done...

Wait - so if I am reading this right, if you self admit yourself to rehab, then get caught by police in a DUI in this country - they take your drivers license - but let you keep your FAC? One would think that it should be an automatic impounding of the weapons and license revocation until a...

Curious, looking at the retail layouts and P1, P2...did they leave any option to connect in the future underground either to the north (i.e. into the bay) or to the west (assuming at some point whatever replaces Stollery's will connect north across bloor into the "path" system... I guess...

It's interesting to read about the history of the brickworks, http://www.torontolife.com/informer/features/2010/08/25/wild-thing-the-story-behind-the-brick-works/3/ Raves were one of the prime motivations for doing something with the site it seems...they definitely brought people to the site...

Seems pretty clear to me that if police are doing any moonlighting, especially in uniform where their pay is coming from an outside organization that at the least the police should be publicly reporting: who is doing the paying and how much, which officers are involved and how much time are they...

Sounds good...there are a lot of good jobs to be had in this area - and lots of money to be made....everything from computer science and engineering jobs to installation of devices on roads or retrofitting vehicles, rebuilding of roads for enhanced functionality...sales to many other countries...

I'm not a cop or a lawyer, but how much reasonable suspicion do cops need to search an office...I mean, if they aren't trying to get a warrant now to search the office tonite, then what are we paying them for?
