The one at TE Seaton Park by Eglinton has been there at least 3 years. There's a new one at the south end of the parkWill they hit their target number of installs before Christmas? Seems very possible.

Yes, there are more non-operational docks - or bikes that do not dock easily. I guess due to older equipment. Not sure there is any way for a user to flag a "dead dock' - which WOULD be a good idea - otherwise, how do Bike Share find them??I noticed many more broken docks in 2023. Sometimes, I'd bike to a dock with one or two empty docks only to find that they are empty because they don't lock. I can see how someone could just dump the bike and leave if in a rush. Or if they don't realize that it didn't lock, someone would take it after on a joy ride and abandon it.
I never encountered broken docks in 2021 and 2022 as a casual user.
Mayor's office got back to podcaster Toronto Mike on his concerns. He tweeted the response here. Copy below.
