Updated an Ottawa map I made a while back. In this case its an imagining of the O-Train as a hybrid LRT/Interubran network for the Ottawa-Gatineau region.
Flashback to 5 years ago.Made a little map showing what the Bloor-Danforth in Scarborough could have looked like had the old Candadian Northern right-of-way not been developed over.

So frustrating. Could have been done decades ago for a fraction of the costMade a little map showing what the Bloor-Danforth in Scarborough could have looked like had the old Candadian Northern right-of-way not been developed over.

I was thinking what if Line 1 was broken into two lines, each continuing from Union to form two halves of the Downtown Relief Line? I guess it would not be possible due to the excavations needed, but an interesting thought.Line 1 does not even need to be continuous through Union. How many people make that U-turn journey? Even if some people make it, it won't be a loss to them because they will only need to walk about 600 meters extra.
That should also help with managing delays as problems on Yonge line won't affect University line and vice versa.
Also, we can boast having our 5th subway line without doing much work (just like how UK "added" lanes on its highways by converting shoulder lanes into traffic lanes)

I have been having fun with metrodreamin.com lately. I find it to be by far the best app for creating fantasy maps - if you are not familiar with graphics programs. You are restricted to making geographic maps though, not diagram maps.
