Too bad the Don River doesn't connect, this isn't my wheelhouse but I suspect that model is going to have even more flooding issues than the real city!

The 510 is only impacted by that intersection closure because it is a bus. It is currently a bus because there is an expansion of the underground streetcar loop that kicked off as a result of redevelopment of this site.

I considered putting this as an update to 316 Bloor West however given this weeks impact on the 510 Spadina Streetcar/Bus I think it belong here. The site is basically unchanged from when I passed by June 24th, and no work active work on the surface. Couldn't snap a photo today but here's the...

I noticed this morning that the propane tank at OK Tire to the east has been removed.

Now that is a gap to be minded!

Hmmm, so admittedly I've never tried visiting a station twice, something I guess I'll plan to do at some point to validate how I think this whole darn system works. However with GO that makes sense as it needs a tap off (don't make me think about pre-set trips) whereas on the TTC you're buying 2...

It's actually just a feature of the era in which it was developed. Back then it had to work on buses in areas with spotty cell service. They couldn't rely on those connections so they designed around it.

Perhaps that wasn't the best example as a row of faregates could probably communicate with each other to block this out, however in that case they could just stagger their entrance until whatever lockout time has passed. According to the 2-hour transit rules it's actually perfectly valid to...

Does deep water cooling still work without power? I'd personally rather be outside given all the humans in there warming the place.

A) The machines don't talk to each other, they talk to the cards and will keep state on them while you are in transit. The exception is credit cards, all their transactions are reconciled afterwards. B) If someone could use the same card on their phone and watch they could hand their phone to...

While the new river is connected, the north plug is still mostly in place. That 2m stretch is not providing much relief. The only chance for it make a meaningful contribution would be if the level was so high as to overtop the plug which would be catastrophic flooding in the valley.

When I saw the update alert I was expecting a swimming pool, glad to see a foundation instead!

You can create a new digital card for free in your Apple Wallet, not sure if it will share the same presto wallet though.

At the top of the seat can we just attach that roll of paper you sit on at the doctor's office so you can a pull out a fresh one before you sit down?

Now all I can picture is a couple of dudes trying to get a couch up one of the staircases to the platform. One of them keeps yelling, "PIVOT" to the other.

So I think there's an issue with this protected intersection island that I don't think has been discussed here yet. As a result of Adelaide being switched to the north side of the road a conflict is created between eastbound and southbound traffic as approaching traffic is expect to bear left...

It's hard to tell from streetview but I don't think the second bay has a stairwell and even if it did it certainly doesn't have an elevator. If it's just accessible from a walkway I suppose they could swap the 26 to the 2nd bay and put the Spadina traffic through primary bay to cut down on the...

Could we just not and let them deliver at whatever speed until we can just impose some contract penalties? It's not as if the TTC is making maximum use of the fleet they have. $47M is a lot of money and while I'd prefer we get them all, after the way they screwed us on initial delivery can't see...

Unsatisfied with just failing to coordinate their projects on the south end of Spadina, the City and TTC say, "hold my beer" Sources: https://www.toronto.ca/community-people/get-involved/public-consultations/infrastructure-projects/bloor-annex-construction/...
