Agreed. It's idiotic to end subways on one side of a pinch point, and here that's the Sheppard bridge over the 404 over which a ton of traffic funnels. Had they extended it to Vic Park with a station at Consumers as well, Northern Scarborough would be far better served than it is now with the congestion buses endure getting over the 404 being eased considerably. Every government is going to have a different limit to what it's willing to spend of course…I honestly believe the Sheppard subway should go to Victoria Park. Just not any further. The amount of employment and residential density in Consumers is huge and is a huge missed opportunity for the line.
It's really a shame the initial phase was cut back by Harris back in the 90s. I imagine the line would have much better use today if it went even those few extra km.
