Next board. I wonder when the Eglinton Phase 2 changes are.

Gosh ... only 2 weeks to change all the signage! I took 2 years to do the Eglinton ones ...

Some new Line 6 signage above the Finch West elevator today! Walked around the station but didn’t see any other signs.

I'm not sure where any other persson gets their info, but most would use the GTFS open data

That can be found here: https://ckan0.cf.opendata.inter.pro...b2b8-6191-41e3-bda1-b175c51148cb/download/TTC Routes and Schedules Data.zip

TTC still hasn't confirmed that date but most media is reporting that it opens that day.

Metrolinx still hasn't confirmed that date but most media is reporting that it opens that day.

It's really up to the TTC to decide when it will open assuming the line has be handed over to them.

 

[chrisw]

@Metroscapes There's some reporting that they're using the time to train more operators on Finch. Though it's unfortunate that it wasn't done earlier.

 

[EastYorkTTCFan]

@Metroscapes There's some reporting that they're using the time to train more operators on Finch. Though it's unfortunate that it wasn't done earlier.

Part of that was because when the TTC wanted to do it, the contractor building the line was refusing access to the TTC because they were trying to sue Metrolinks, so they could pick an operator instead of having the TTC be named it by Metrolinks
