and that right there is what saying.^ the date on the plan says October 2020. The Bowmanville Extension IBC with the GM spur as the preferred option came out in February 2020. So I'm going to assume/speculate that the team's did some coordination, but given the space/passenger bridge created with the new Oshawa GO station, it doesn't appear to be that difficult to extend a track east for the extension. Don't mind at all if someone disagrees with my speculation/assumption on this.
Yes, that roll plan is part of the stage 3 presentation of the tpap back in October. thats correct.
But what im saying is that those plans existed at least since February not even 2 weeks after the GM spur announcement was made. Therefore It is impossible to have it taken into account considering the fact that the tpap plans most definitely had some lead up time to it
Heres the roll plan from february: https://www.metrolinxengage.com/sites/default/files/lse_roll_plan_combined.pdf
Heres the roll plan from the Round 3 consultation open house: https://www.metrolinxengage.com/sites/default/files/lse_roll_plan_combined.pdf
Those tracks exist in both presentations
Also theres this:
With that said, is it easier to extend that track in the future? possibly, but again thats a completely different conversation for 5 years from now
