York Region residents want their subway!!! Two letters to the editor from today Vaughan Citizen from people who think that the VIVA rapidways should be scrapped and that money spent on a subway extension...

Do these people even realize that this rapidway is for E-W travel across the region and have little to do with the Yonge subway (other than it's eventual connection to the subway at RHC)? Unbelievable. I've said it before and I'll say it again, all these plans are well and good but when the rubber hits the road York residents will raise their voices over destruction of their "quiet suburb". The did it to the Yonge st rapidway and now have focused on this rapidway. In their minds a subway is the only mas transit option, well subways don't work in quiet suburbs unfortunately.
