This is a thread dedicated to the proposed western extention of the Relief Line. If you want to discuss the main section of the DRL that will soon be built, talk about there.

I don't know what you mean by Eastern extension?This is a thread dedicated to the proposed western, northern, and eastern extentions of the Relief Line. If you want to discuss the main section of the DRL that will soon be built, talk about there.
Just to give my two cents, I think this thread should be renamed Relief Line West.
The Relief Line South thread and project is what you might refer to the "east" arm of the Relief Line (Phase 1). The Relief Line North thread can entail the planned extension to Sheppard (Phase 2), and any future extensions beyond Sheppard can also be discussed in that thread.
Relief Line West has been identified as Phase 3. This should be the Phase 3 thread.
The westerly extension would likely start after Phase II, north of Danforth Avenue.
Going west, it would start by using the tail tracks west of Osgoode Station. From Appendix 3-1, Relief Line South Horizontal and Vertical Alignment of the Environmental Project Report. That is west of John Street. See link.

We have more threads than subway lines
Created a map of a possible future Dufferin alignment of the DRL in the west end, added a jog between St Clair and Eglinton west to Keele. Don't really see this line going beyond Eglinton.
Two new lines through downtown.
Not too firm on it, but DRL up Keele since likely least amount of effort. Since it's up at Queen, stay on Queen all the way to High Park.
The other "DRL" goes to the Ex and Humber.
