Looking forward to a FRESH START for Toronto
None of these plans really seem all that different - they all propose routes in similar places. That Transit City turned the focus to LRT and away from Subway was the only radical thing about it. And that, I think, was driven by a pretty rational belief that big subway plans had been going nowhere for over three decades.
I wish the DRL had been included but politically I think the route to the DRL involves holding fast against the Richmond Hill extension. Building TC lines that overwhelm the line further will probably be a good motivator, too. The province isn't likely to touch this until either their urge to build into Richmond Hill overwhelms them or the subway gets so overcrowded that people begin to revolt.
