    TTC: Other Items (catch all)

    I’m not an engineer but can you dig up one side to the bed rock without affecting the other tracks?

    TTC: Other Items (catch all)

    I absolutely hate out of the ~3 bathrooms on any given line, 1 or 2 are usually broken, along with no notice on the website or alert pages!

    TTC: Other Items (catch all)

    Update on our friend with a Jerry can, Donald McFarlane, 47, of Toronto. He has been arrested and charged with: • ⁠Assault with a weapon, • ⁠arson/damage property, • ⁠two counts of common nuisance, • ⁠causing a disturbance and • ⁠four counts of failing to comply with probation...

    I don’t get why we have this insane risk averse safety culture yet we had a derailment that closed a line. It’s not just the TTC miway is the only agency in the world that decided to block off open seats...

    At least the Jerry Can stands out!

    Finch West Line 6 LRT

    Notice I mentioned for speed they’re great but for adding passengers I’d call them a dismal failure. The nearby Dixie GO station is packed to the last row so people are happy to get out of their cars if trips are faster and transfers are minimized!

    Finch West Line 6 LRT

    I agree with you about stops though I wanted to interject and mention wheeltrans is useless for anything you can’t schedule a day in advance!

    Finch West Line 6 LRT

    When it comes to adding ridership the BRT is probably the most useless transit decision in our province. I think I've seen at most 5 cars? In any of the parking lots. For bypassing traffic it's great but that's about it IMO

    They being the public sector unions mentioned earlier. Despite there being 3 levels of government offices in Toronto and dozens of unions I don't know anyone who got to keep 5 day WFH

    Sorry if this off topic but once they budged on 1 day a week the whole thing was doomed!

    TTC: Other Items (catch all)

    Not meaningfully it seems, I get dinosaurs who failed upwards in life like ford hate it but people in government who held jobs in life seem to be mostly silent

    Why not just let people WFH? As someone who worked at a place with "deep climate pledges" forcing everyone in 5 days a week outdid every single "green" change they've done till that point.

    I 100% understand your complaint! Like I think the bus drivers not enforcing fares is part of why there are so many characters riding now. On the flip side I also 100% understand why the TTC told them they're not supposed to act like fare inspectors since the number of violent incidents has gone...

    TTC: Other Items (catch all)

    How many examples of a violent crime committed by someone who is on bail/a repeat offender would satisfy you? If you’re not going to listen why bother relying? I think there is an incredibly small group of people out to lunch who are being let to run free! For some reason we keep letting them...

    TTC: Other Items (catch all)

    By "the person" I meant anyone who does that. But to be fair every single person arrested for that sort of an offence has MULTIPLE warrants or probation conditions they've breached before. This sort of stuff happens more frequently than it should...
