Isn't the water issue usually to do with the reserves? Even if things go well I hear often there are no qualified people to run them as they go down south for better opportunities

There was a weekend where the go and TTC were both out in the west end (obviously lakeshore wasn't affected but imagine if you couldn't drive?)

I linked earlier that several years ago it cost $700,000 just to reprogram the crappy 1990's voices on the train when downsview was renamed. Can't wait to give Alstom 3 million to change 3 station names

It'll cost close to $1 million to rename the station if not more

I believe when downsview was renamed it cost $600,000 to reprogram that shitty robot announcement voice on the tr trains (shouldn't it be easier as they're text to speach?) https://dailyhive.com/toronto/downsview-station-renamed-sheppard-west

This was for york

nice to see you have a sense of humor

When I saw the photo I was thinking it must be a new challenge to add tracks next to an existing one, hope I can check it out and add some close up shots

I'm not sure what's going on here, they're adding a 2nd lane to the existing streetcar track for the detour is the existing track all being replaced, and they're tearing out the old one where the twinning is extended? Took me a while I found the final layout but I'm still wondering are they...

I wonder if aside from road work (sidewalks, paving) they're waiting on better weather for?

I feel like many here are privileged enough they don't need to go into work 5x a week

Come visit Mississauga, I often see people parked in front of community housing on the multi use bike trail. Often 2-3 cars

it’s bad almost always for me, weekends, evenings. Depends on the direction too. The gardiner pretty much always jams up going east

To be fair unless you’re going to union station the service is pretty crap

I’m surprised! I’ll be honest the one thing I really like about King Street being open to bikes, is that pre-pandemic when I biked on Adelaide or Wellington there were a lot of hard-core cyclists in a narrow lane, and it honestly turned me off biking
