I can't tell you how many times I have been staring at Apple Maps along Eglinton being like "God maybe we could make this a little better by cutting off some of these intersections."

Yeah Woodbine station should for sure get some sort of treatment as part of this. (Including indoor connection with the grocery store and residential tower)

I'm just imagining multiple streets downtown pedestrianized with semi indoor-outdoor style roofs like this... man that would be pretty cool.

The entire eastern section should of been built like this, and then they should of used high floor automated metro trains with PSDs.... 😭

What we need is a fully electrified extension of the Barrie line to Collingwood and then Blue Mountain. (I mean, maybe eventually... wouldn't that be just fantastically European? 🥺)

I see we have a Technology Connections viewer.

yes but that would not be a new mode, it would still be the Metro.

I would question creating an entirely new mode just to serve this area instead of eating your vegetables and extending the green line.

If they ever extended the Metro past Angrignon; should they do it cheaper through this corridor elevated Sapporo Subway style/shallow cut and cover (Red), or should they do a much more expensive tunneled project to hit the commercial center? (Blue)

You can't.

I think how you define the city depends on the what city it is a lot. For Toronto I would just consider the legal boundary the city because it's already so large and the GTA beyond the lines is extremely suburban. Vancouver or Los Angeles however are cities that I would include other...

Yeah but nobody does that, that would make no sense at all. That would would be like limiting Rome to the Vatican City.

The ARTM should "study" how to dissolve themselves as an agency. "Stepping over dollars to save pennies since 2017"

Hmmm I wonder if there is some kind of automated transit technology currently operating in Montreal that could be used here? Oh well!

Yep. A big part of the CDPQs game plan is low operating costs due to automation. They will never accept a Toronto style tram project.

Ah yes, financial gains made by... *checks notes* needing drivers?

Reeeaaaaly hoping this "new agency" just hands this back to the CDPQ so the thing actually gets built.

If he gets fired maybe we can get him back.

Okay the Ontario Line is being built so people preferring the OL or the DRL is pretty academic at this point. This thread is supposed to be abut Ontario Line extension.
