Wexford was a village around Lawrence & Pharmacy, not really near Eglinton so much.

So CBC reported on the radio today about the first of 4 working sessions between Metrolinx and the accessible community on this project.
One woman was very vocal against the fact that its half underground citing fears of being trapped in an emergency and claustrophobia....
First of all....classic example of one of the main causes for these projects being stretched for years over what it should take and second....isnt it
a little late to be discussing about this....???
90% of discussion, especially on this forum, happens years too late to affect anything.
Also any possibility or decision will have a vocal group of people opposed to it no matter what.

Perhaps give Highway 7 a name and call it that instead.

The next day a man comes in and gets vocal about how half the stations are on/above ground, sic agoraphobia. What do you do, what do you do??
And just be glad the lady didn't suggest having open air vehicles to alleviate her conditions.

The closing of my favourite McDonalds was my last straw. It's about time we ended this madness. Transit City is DEAD!

LOL. Call up Harris. Maybe he's been keeping the cement mixer running.

Eglinton subway, 1992?
Either way, as a deaf individual, I hope there's electronic station callout signs like on newer TTC vehicles.

Kids will probably call it BCPV.
What if they call it Metropolitan Boulevard?

How about "We're way in over our Heads Bouleveard"?

Just imagine if this project stretched to Mississauga's office district on Eglinton. We would probably have a station called "Mississauga Corporate Office Centre @ Toronto Airport" with Metrolinx' logic.

If it hasn't been posted, here is a map of Line 5 with the new station/stop names. I'm glad the "& Eglinton" idea died a quick death.
