The outdoor stations are sad and depressing. Great marketing for that Toyota dealership seen in the rendering which should see a spike in sales if this is how they roll out
Based on this drawing from 2014, it is more trenched than above ground.I think you're looking at it wrong? Only the Mount Dennis stop is above ground on the western portion of the under construction ECT LRT.
Also, the shelters remind me very much of the stops for the Spadina Streetcar. Which isn't good if we're trying to prove to Scarborough residents that they aren't getting second class transit.
and that's including the one for Victoria Park (oddly named O'Connor - the street itself isn't in Scarborough).
If they don't even have that, that would be terrible and "second class transit" for Scarborough. If the stations don't have them...I assume the stops would include countdown clocks to indicate when the next LRT is coming.
Why would anyone give a hoot?Exactly, that's the problem. However, seeing an orange Line 5 will probably reduce the mix ups.
Paint an LRV green and just watch the mass confusion that will ensue between the TTC's streetcars and the Metrolinx LRVs. Let's remember that many people in our society lack general common sense.
Progress. If slow.hmm so on slide 48 it does confirm that they will be laying down a green track
Not only in poorer. I might want to get out of the blazing heat on a heat-island platform in the middle of an urban highway in the heat of summer. Agreed. the length of a two-car train is the minimum standard that makes it.I would have expected a roofline the full length of a 2-vehicle train, at least. That design will bunch up riders in poor weather, leading to longer boarding times.

I believe that and WiFi are part of the plan. The TTC plans to have next bus clocks at all stops in the near future. as well.I assume the stops would include countdown clocks to indicate when the next LRT is coming.
