Geotechnical Investigative Work on Yonge St between south of Thornridge Dr to Royal Orchard Blvd.

How feasible is a branched line with 90s headways?

Yes, it'd be preferable if construction could start before the OL is complete.

There might be a bit of a fight with NIMBYs for the elevated extension. There's benefits to not needing to fight all the NIMBYs at once.

Well, it's nice that it's fully protected against splashes from the road.

There's a public meeting at 7pm on May 28th. https://www.markham.ca/wps/portal/home/about/city-hall/council-committee-meetings/20240528-dsc-public-meeting-7015-7200-7290-leslie-street Here's some biased material.

@Willybru21 Interesting, is A/B/C an official thing?

I don't think the route goes along Metro Rd N. It's mainly along Lake Drive. It's a 30km/h shared road, though there's recent plans to also make improvements to it.

I'm not exactly sure how to interpret the plan for East Gwillimbury. York Region is working with the Lake Simcoe Region Conservation Authority (LSRCA) to identify potential route alignment for future trail extensions in East Gwillimbury. On Road Sections are mainly in the Town of Georgina. A...

Nice to see acrylite panels that offer a peek behind the curtain.

That would be the average speed with all the traffic lights and dwell time considered. Also, I see some quotes with a 28 km/h avg speed, not sure what it is now. Finch West might have an average speed of 20-21 km.

Well, the sweet sound of honking. Posted by blogTO, not sure how recent this is.

A top level look at the proposed service changes.

400 cameras across Toronto Pedestrian detectors for leading pedestrian interval Lidar detectors can get quite a lot of information regarding, cars, buses, transit, pedestrians, cyclists from quite far away. They have a lot of real time data and can also adjust signals remotely.

And they get a lot of experience building these. From the March Report, generally it's a 5-7 year process to study, budget, design, and construction. 61 km in the design phase. 15 km in the study phase. Generally, the detailed design phase takes 2 years from procurement to completion (completion...

@Coolibop I had the exact same experience going to the Cineplex. You can miss the turnoff sign, and if you're also not looking for the bike lane in the median. Even if there's a red light, you're waiting past the turn off signs, so you won't see them. And it's quite normal for bike lanes to end...
