    Plans to fill in Allen Road

    At this time and with this council, this probably is not a bad idea. Like the Gardiner, they would probably vote to rebuild the Allen in an even deeper trench.

    Roads: Gardiner Expressway

    We'd have to build some more parking lots to go along with these underground parking lots.

    Waterloo Region Transit Developments (ION LRT, new terminal, GRT buses)

    Wow, the bar for ministerial announcements has gotten pretty low. What's next? Curbs and line painting?

    TTC: Cherry Street reconstruction and streetcar trackage (City of Toronto/TTC, U/C)

    Before anyone asks, I'm freelance man about town, local gadfly, Esquire.

    Toronto Pearson International Airport

    Great. The last thing I want on a trans-atlantic flight is for the person beside me to have just scarfed down a bean burrito.

    SmartTrack (Proposed)

    Does anyone thing that when they step onto their first GO EMU that John Tory will still be mayor? I doubt Metrolinx does.

    Don Valley Gondola (Broadview Stn to Evergreen Brick Works)

    This gondola needs to be extended to STC. Scarberians deserve a 1 seat ride to the Brick Works.

    GO Transit: Union Station Shed Replacement & Track Upgrades (Zeidler)

    When they removed the full bush in favour of the clear box, it stands to reason there would be more maintenance involved. Sorry, I couldn't resist.

    GO Transit: Union Station Shed Replacement & Track Upgrades (Zeidler)

    Oh I don't know. "may be relocated within its property or development site" I think we've found the new moat glass support structure!

    GO Transit: Union Station Shed Replacement & Track Upgrades (Zeidler)

    I've said it before. The bush shed by all means should be preserved. But in situ? I think it would look awesome at the Bloor GO station. Installed a couple feet higher though.

    Danforth Line 2 Scarborough Subway Extension

    Hmmm. You don't hear these sentiments on the Gardiner thread.

    Scarborough-Malvern LRT

    Hmmm, I'd think they'd still want an east-end carhouse so up to Conlin's would be expected.

    Danforth Line 2 Scarborough Subway Extension

    Unfortunately, in a Norman Bates vein, a lot of council is shovel ready.

    Roads: Gardiner Expressway

    Having 3 hybrid options avoids the flaming douche - turd sandwich analogy.

    Waterloo Region Transit Developments (ION LRT, new terminal, GRT buses)

    Yes. Let's not revisit that old terminology chestnut once again.

    GO Transit: Service thread (including extensions)

    There is that little issue with ice in the winter too. Myself, I think that direct St Catharines - Toronto route just screams trebuchet.

    Union Station LRT Loop Reconfiguration (TTC, Proposed)

    I posted about this many pages ago but I'll throw it to the wolves again. My preference is to have the portal surface in front of the ACC, Bay St transit mall up to Queen and loop around old city hall. There are other operational options as well. If there were a track union at King, then...

    Union Station LRT Loop Reconfiguration (TTC, Proposed)

    - bring QQ and Bay St. tracks to the surface - use existing tunnels for TTC offices and committee meeting rooms - brick up entrance

    Toronto Queens Quay & Water's Edge Revitalization | ?m | ?s | Waterfront Toronto

    I don't like the idea of all that spilled motor oil. I think a gate would be easier to install/maintain.
