Hamilton Street Railway is the most neglected and underfunded transit system in the province. Many years straight of declining ridership while the rest of the province (including London) was seeing increased ridership. It was only a couple of years ago that the City of Hamilton finally increased...

But LTC doesn't have low ridership does it? London has the best transit ridership per capita in Ontario outside of Toronto and Ottawa. It's better than Guelph, Mississauga, Waterloo, Hamilton... Comparing nationally, London Transit's approximately 60 riders per capita is on the same level as...

London is in the Snow Belt, and articulated buses can't operate in the snow. LRT would make much more sense than BRT. But if they are not willing make sacrifices even for BRT, then LRT which requires even greater committment is also out of the question. Honestly, I don't think it is that...

Full transitway with Ridgeway, Creditview, City Centre and Hurontario stations is still in the city's long term plans. However, Mavis station has been deleted. http://www6.mississauga.ca/onlinemaps/planbldg/MOP/Schedules/Sched%206%20TransNetCntre_V8_MOP_Appeals_Housekeep_V-5.003.pdf The Erin...

Farebox. Does farebox know the location? Probably not. 4.7 million riders (actually around 19,000 per weekday) is equal to or greater than the total combined ridership of 100/107/109. It is hard to believe that the transitway stations have so many boardings, even if you count Square One (not...

I have always been against the loop through MCC. The City Centre/Square One terminal is located where it is for the transitway, and Hurontario already intersects with transitway directly. Putting LRT on Rathburn would interfere with bus operations, not only the transitway buses but also the...

4.7M riders is around No, 4.7 million is boardings (unlinked trips). 40 million is revenue riders (linked trips). So around 55 million boardings or unlinked trips system-wide. It's not clear if 4.7 million boardings means transitway stations or the transitway routes, which do not serve the...

I need lots of snow for photos so I've been very happy with the weather. Couldn't ask for more.

Square One, including its parking lots, comprise about 1/6 of the land in MCC. The parking lots comprise around 1/2 of that. I will not judge MCC based entirely on 1/12 of its land use. And some of Square One parking lots have been filled in gradually over the years from the mall's various...

Wow, thank you for identifying those plants! I didn't know it is Dame's rocket, I thought it was a cress flower. I also confused fleabane with aster. I don't know anything so I have to use ontariowildflowers.com to try to identify them but it is hard.

Orlando Corporation’s Heartland Business Community is one of the most prestigious business parks in the Greater Toronto Area and one of the largest undertakings of its kind in Canada. The 1,250-acre development includes over 25 million square feet of office, industrial, and retail space...

Yes, it should be the same map, I don't think I updated anything, if that's what you're saying. Or were you saying it is too similar to the current system? It wasn't meant to be long term otherwise the LRT would be on there. And keep in mind, this map was made years ago, before the "MiWay Five"...

Thank you, Goldie. I didn't intend this as a thread for others to post pictures, but maybe that is not a bad idea, so I don't mind. I like your third image a lot.

GO stations in Durham are not in good locations, which also doesn't help for connecting with local transit. I think GO doesn't do enough to make its rail service accessible to people without a car. I see the same problems with GO stations in Mississauga, although not as bad in Durham. GO has...

GO needs to find some way to give discounts to people who walk or bike to the stations instead of spending so much money trying to satisfy the ever-increasing parking demand.

Map for GTA I made way back in the day (with some minor edits). Some may remember. Hard to make major edits because Illustrator cannot load fonts properly or something but I'm not sure what I would change anyways: And map for Mississauga, also a repost:

The extension into Laval masked some of STM's ridership losses on the island. I think the overall numbers are not quite as rosy as they seem at first glance. I hope those new buses help to reverse the ridership loss. Montreal has a great system, Vancouver has a great system, but so does...
