Humber River Hospital (Wilson, a few blocks west of Keele)

That brings us to 734 stations total.

A slew more new stations, if they keep this pace up, we could get to where we're suppose to be by the end of this month!

Jane/Lawrence:

Oakdale Community Ctr:

The Pond Rd/Ian Macdonald

Finch/Sentinel:

Keele/Catford:

Queen's Quay/Merchant's Wharf

Odd choice to have another one at Lansdowne Station.... I would rather have one up at Dupont and Lansdowne. Bit of a dead zone around there.

Not sure if they just aren't there yet in expansion plans, or if they're waiting............

Big plans are coming to Dupont, maybe as soon as 2025......... TBD

You're gonna put a sad face every single time I post in this thread until you get a station on your door step aren't you? LOL

As if I have something to do w/that.

State of Bikeshare Toronto Report is on the agenda of the next meeting of the Toronto Parking Authority:

From the above:

Oh, @Towered is not going to like the updated Expansion Plan slide..........

 

[Northern Light]

Bikeshare published their year-end goal for number of stations, it's a bit higher than I thought, they are aiming for 780.

As at this posting, there are now 750 active stations. (at 10 per week installed, if weather permits, they could meet their goal by early December)

New Stations:

And one in the east end:

Also of note.

A report to the Parking Authority Board next week seeks approval to pre-purchase (order now, ahead of Council adoption of the capital budget), the expansion bikes and docks for 2024.

Next year's expansion will be smaller, at 90 additional docks ( from this year's closing goal of 780 to next year's closing goal of 870 )

****

This time, maybe, my ragging on them has made a difference, LOL

So they are committing to have all the bikes in place in/around Canada Day next year.

Holy moly. I just looked at the map too. It's a much wider area with 0 bikes than even your map shows. Tons of full stations closer to downtown though.

Not sure how much that just reflects the southbound/downhill commuter flow, or if this is exceptionally bad.
