    GO Transit: Construction Projects (Metrolinx, various)

    I think it was Paul years ago who said if woodbine is paying to build the station MX better have a great contract pointing out who pays for what and what if standards change in the future.

    GO Transit: Construction Projects (Metrolinx, various)

    Not sure if this belongs in the construction thread but reading the business case for the Etobicoke North demolition/replacement the business case to move to woodbine seems incredibly weak even in the report...

    Finch West Line 6 LRT

    Don't shame them for by their own metrics completing 0.01% of the project in 10 months 🤣

    Cycling infrastructure (Separated bike lanes)

    I did a quick google search but didn't find anything on costs just that it was tendered. Contract: 17ECS-TI-110LR

    General cycling issues (Is Toronto bike friendly?)

    Sorry I usually post on mobile so it's hard to format things well. Thanks again! I remember the bloor report was 50+pages, I glanced through it again and yeah for a powerpoint KISS does make sense!

    General cycling issues (Is Toronto bike friendly?)

    Thanks for linking the data! My concern was that for the bloor study I didn’t notice any sort of attention paid to factors like weather and there were not any follow up measuring periods scheduled after October, and I could be wrong but there weren’t any scheduled for July or August, two...

    General cycling issues (Is Toronto bike friendly?)

    I’m still pretty disappointed I’m being called a troll despite the fact I’ve done some first hand research and posted numbers and have pointed out the city has no consistency in bike infrastructure (ex, not protecting 15 year old lanes that connect directly to bloor) Regardless of people’s...

    General cycling issues (Is Toronto bike friendly?)

    I feel like everyone here is confusing "can with do" People CAN cycle in the winter but they chose not to! Even the city website says winter use is 20% of summer so the majority of existing cyclists are choosing not to, and personally I think the temperatures are more of a deterrent than the...

    Roads: Ontario/GTA Highways Discussion

    Maybe I'm just imagining it but I noticed out of all the 400 series off ramps in the GTA, the only ones that will change within 10-15 seconds of a single car arriving are the 407 exits. I'll see 1 car show and within 10 seconds the cross traffic turns red, I've noticed this on 6 or 7 different...

    GO Transit Fleet Equipment and other

    I know it's they're a necessary evil but the seemingly permanent GO or TTC closures every weekend have forced me to drive when I would have taken transit. How they will shed that image to the weekend riders, who know?

    TTC: Other Items (catch all)

    Is it confirmed the last outage a few days ago (with the trespasser) also was tied to signals as well?

    TTC: Major Operational Issues (Various)

    I took the TTC daily for years but it's so much worse than it's ever been, also people seem to have forgotten they're in a shared space and not their living room. Even on the GO the quiet zone is basically non existent, I can't get onto a single TTC vehicle without having to hear someone's...

    VIA Rail

    IMO the two reasons I never saw GO and VIA as comparable (for transit) is the scheduling and the cost. If I want to go to the falls it cost me $10 round trip with GO and there were 3 direct trains AND bus + train trips if the timing didn't work out. for the same trip via is $54 and has ONE...

    just my 2 cents but calling people stuff like "car brain" just enforces this divide of cyclists vs drivers

    Roads: GTA West Corridor—Highway 413

    Honestly as good as flex time would be it's not viable if you're in a customer facing role and they need to reach, WFH should be something the government is either pushing or providing tax benefits for, but we saw how that went! This reminds me of browsing reddit pre-covid when people would say...

    Finch West Line 6 LRT

    Was it finch or Eglinton that had the QR codes that were recently hung up (to inform about bus changes) that didn't work? I want to go see in person and submit a complaint and see how many weeks (months) it takes
