Might as well just revitalize/upgrade Downsview airport now that it has both a subway and a GO train.

Only if we didn't learn any of the lessons from Line 6.

No,it was supposed to open in 20208...

In any decently run organization, Customer Service Operations (including CSAs) are part of Revenue Service Demonstration testing.

Most companies behind LLMs aren't in favour of legislation - especially any that might affect them.

I can't think of a more optimal solution...to drive away customers and businesses from the area. Congrats - we turned a street into a highway / stroad! Wait a second - where did all the costumers go? People don't like shopping or eating next to a busy road? Who knew?

Would also be a great place to introduce trams/streetcars with driver cabin on both the back and the front and doors on both sides. The operational flexiblity and not needing a loop to turn around would be useful in this environments where space is limited. Oh, a spur that takes the line to...

I wonder if all the doors will automagically open whenever the vehicles stop on the surface stops. It's not an issue for the underground section, but seems like a waste of energy and heat/cooling to open all doors outside if it's not required.

At the airport, once you get on the plane there usually isn't someone walking down the aisle checking to see if you paid for your ticket. Why does VIA still hire someone to do that? That job seems redundant as mentioned in Paige's video.

Those two parkling lots look like a missed opportunity for some transit oriented development.

All of the various fantasy maps I've seen here make me wonder what it would look like if all of the giant parking structures at many Go Stations were all torn down and replaced with transit oriented development.

Except it seems designed to avoid providing any meaningful funding to the TTC. If it was a proposal to fund any transit station built with Transit Oriented Development in mind, it would go a lot further.

We have a new mayor. Someone should ask her.

I'm curious - what aren't they working on at Eglinton?

From a revenue perspective 10,000 5 km trips. We also don't know how many new riders would be attracted by the idea of being able to travel to/from Bloor-Lansdowne to Barrie South, and Bradford, and Newmarket, and Maple.

I wonder if they'll go the extra kilometer and have the Ontario Line actually go to Ontario Place. The business case is stronger for that if the provincial government really wants to justify all of the changes they recently announced to Ontario Place.

The houses on Danforth St in Portland are definitely houses with character and probably worth preserving. Those on Danforth and Bloor in Toronto? No. Especially not on a subway line during a housing crisis.

People can learn. On St. Clair people have to press buttons to open the door.

It's always hard to predict the future. 100 years ago, everyone thought that cars would solve similar complaints of ugly, messy transit that was expensive to maintain, and susceptible to the wraths of mother nature - horses. The technology will hit the sweet spot of performance, reliablity in...

Toronto already has platform edge doors on the Union Pearson Express for a few stations. They are at Union Station even though there's not a "need" to have platform edge doors there based on what happens on every other platform. Oh - there's really no reason to use a homeless person as an...
