Ottawa Transit Developments

[kEiThZ]

Multiple elected politicians, businesses, community groups, university's, and government agencies have spoken in favour of the idea - that's not spam, sorry!

1) This is Urban Toronto. So mostly the focus is on content relevant to Toronto.

2) This thread was started initially about the Confederation Line. And has largely been a place to focus on current projects under development. Not just fantasy ideas that have merely been mentioned favourably by politicians.

I'll leave it to the mods to decide if you're derailing this thread too much. @AlvinofDiaspar @JasonParis

Maybe start an Ottawa Transit Fantasy thread and move these to it? The key word in this thread is Developments.

I agree that this thread should have a focus on current developments and that a fantasy thread can be created. This thread is about Ottawa, so it does not need to be relevant to Toronto.

The city placed a order for 4 long range electric buses they should arrive sometime next summer.

Okay, that's enough post-bumping about a Bank Street LRT tunnel, especially if you're just posting links to your own content.

Hopefully not from NovaBus?

Lets hope this is solved before the Finch cars are built as well the Hurontario ones.
LRT wheels won't all be replaced despite TSB advisory

All you've done is post these fantasy Bank Street tunnel maps in this thread, what about this one made your jaw drop?

Presumably the price tag. 8 stations (including terminii) for a 4.5 km stretch. These guys think Ottawa is Tokyo....

He's literally spamming every forum he can. You should see his accomplishments on Reddit. Keep letting him go and he'll be bringing up the Bank St subway in a thread about puppies in Davenport shortly.

*The point is this: you've been a one-note poster so far. If you continue to post on just this one obsession, and if the posts continue to be as pointless as this last one, you will be considered a troll and your account on UrbanToronto will be terminated.
