acknowledging the legitimate differences between the netherlands and ON/QB corridor is exceptionlism ? Ok. As I already stated, I'm not even in disagreement with your overall thesis. I fully believe Alto And regional rail should share track and one suspects with the recent mention of pearson...

It's par for the course in canada for even remotely controversial ideas. See opposition to even the idea of a pipline to the west coast. See opposition to socialized housing. See opposition to chinese cars. See opposition to gentle densification in big cities. See opposition to anything BUT...

Beginning this Sunday, April 5, train service on Line 5 Eglinton will be extended to 1:20 a.m., Sundays to Fridays, and 12:30 a.m. on Saturdays. Earlier this year, the City of Toronto made changes to traffic signals at all intersections along Line 5 Eglinton to allow LRT trains to move through...

Are you speculating or... do you know something we don't know? And if you know...are you saying that their are no plans to extend the line to malvern or Stc? Thus paving the way to EELRT

Netherlands imo does not make your case at all for a whole host of reasons, I'm sorry to say. The netherlands is so highly urbanized, densely populated, population nodes decentralized, and simply a small country, that it would make almost no fiscal sense to limit high speed ROW to connections...

Hardly concerning. The row will become public by the fall. Several years before the start of construction so we're really only talking a year from consultation to release of the supposed final ROW. This is incredibly reasonable and imo necessary. You must listen to the stakeholders before...

Are you new to this? If they did that many groups would complain about the ROW and call out the lack of consultation. Imo the issue is not that some ppl oppose the line, that was always going to happen, but at least they're following a tried and true processes of consultation.. Case and...

Any other hints you wish to share... Paticualrly regarding Sheppard East? Pearson Airport...I'm thinking transit hub? Crosstown/ finch west exstension ? 👀👀

Nothing new in that article but just more sad confirmation of what we already know. The ultimate shame is that torontonians don't even understand how transformative electrification done right could be. For instance, I'm currently in the netherlands and took a train from schiphol to the...

This is a very important interview that make one thing very clear.. The man at the top is competent. Many of the concerns ppl have here about scope creep, community engagment, and the choosen alignment etc. While warranted should listen to the ceo speak. He is a very effective communicator and...

This issue will perculate in the background for over two years. The libs will have a leader by then and that leader is predict will be an mpp so yes this can become a hot botton issue worth campaigning against for both the libs and ndp. Its such an easy W for their target constituents. I...

Sounds like an election issue down the line ? I know it's early but I have a hard time seeing ford in power for a 4th time. The odds are just not in his favour for that which makes me believe this'll never get built

We are not sure. Besides the fact that everything from the rolling stock and civil eng firms are totally different and unrelated

Seems a reasonable proposal near transit that will legitimately allow for car free living .. I don't see this happning in my lifetime

Nearly 3k for 600 square ft in todays market seems insane to me..
