Not even then, it will die on the table... and when revisited again, whatever incarnation it comes back at (LRT, subway, EL), the same cycle will prevent anything from happening. I can't beleive I fell for this song and dance, again. I resign myself from any more hope for this city.

Well then, I hope you're pretty young, otherwise, should Toronto go this route, you won't be riding any of those lines in your lifetime.

Not sure if it has been mentioned yet (didn't see it), but I would prefer our mayoral candidates not to disrupt the already approved, funded and under construction transit projects (Sheppard, Eglinton & Finch) and propose a slightly more palatable toll ($3) that could go to funding the DRL.

Toronto is still the "home base" and most of the tourists will be flying in and out of Pearson, one would anticipate, and therefore spend the majority of their time downown TO and then make the day trips out to the events via GO or car... More than a few, will probably choose to stay in Hamilton...

There is very little, if at any at all, consistency or conformity to any of our(Toronto) transit map designs. The TTC ride guide vs the Subway maps, vs the Go train system map, are all just done in house mickey mouse productions. Even Vancouver has recently stepped up there game with their...

Except that, Vancouver wouldn't be riding around on the Canada line sky train were not for getting these Olympics.. and most likely, Toronto will continue to debate and put off any new major investment into any type of infrastructure without any hard deadline to work to.. as sad and pathetic as...

Or even closer to home, the Green line in Boston (not to mention the BRT new silver line), which is essentially street cars running underground downtown then on surface ROWs in more residential areas.. We should definitely be adding these (and the new LRT) lines to our maps, that should...

Well then Toronto must get some pretty good word of mouth, because according to the airport arrivals tourist/overnight numbers, we're right behind NYC (at about 7 million and Toronto with 6.5 million). Putting us right in the top 10 with London and Paris. (above San Fran, in fact)

Ya, I was really asking the question about the Canada line because I didn't know... so still, its about the same as what's slated for Eglinton, (only CL is slightly less)- For Eglinton LRT: Ridership in 2006: 32 million Ridership in 2021: 52 million (taken from TTC website)

How will it carry less people? the LRT trains will hold more ppl than the skytrain sets, and the Eglinton line projections are to be between 35million - 40million/year.... about 100k a day. what's the canada line set to carry??

^Agreed, I think version 7 (with all LRT stops listed) was very useful and clean, too. Also, this is just nit-picking now, but for colour designations, I think the light purple you have selected for Eglinton, would be better suited as the Sheppard LRT to indicate some continuity between the...

Why? With the absence of the streets present, then the map doesn't actually show where your stop is (in relation to where you currently may be). I don't think it's cluttered, and I actually do find it useful, and think it would be useful to anyone new to this TC system. I think as long as...

Ya, you're right, we should probably rip down all the surface street car and bus route maps they currently have at stops, because as you say, with all those stops, its not worth putting on a map... Transit users/tourists/anyone needing to travel into new areas, won't need to know where they...

Niiice... This is the map we should be greated with at each Subway & TC station/stop as well as carried on each Subway / TC car. For regular Streetcar and Bus routes, they can continue to use the Ride Guide fold out mess.

TO Penguin: this map is the best representation of the Transit City / existing subway infrastructure I have seen. I think you are correct and the underground sections could be represented with a bit of a thicker line, however, also, since these lines do criss-cross with one another, they should...

I love this map! I think it could still have 'ticks' to represent the street intersections for the surface sections. I think the TTC should be coming up with these now, if nothing else but to help generate/sustain the excitement around Transit City, to keep selling it and themselves. (I...
