I think LRT and subway only makes sense for corridors with a lot of redevelopment potential. In Etobicoke, the corridors that fall into this category are Wilson-Albion, Eglinton, Dundas, The Queensway and Lakeshore. I don't think building LRT along a residential corridor like Finch or a hydro...

I don't think I've noticed many people getting on the bus on the street outside Kipling. If anything, more people board at the on-street stop outside of Islington.

Daily boardings seem to include weekends for Lakeshore which is annoying because that makes them not comparable to daily boardings for the other lines. It should be weekday boardings only. It is easy enough to divide by 30 anyways. I wish also the total for each line also included boardings at...

Thank you, someMidTowner. I used Olympus C7070 with the WCON-07C wide angle converter. I always shoot RAW and process the files with Capture One Pro 9, and I used its Black and White, Clarity, Curves, and Lens Correction tools for these particular images.

There are three problems with the BRT in Ottawa: 1. It is the backbone of the entire system in the city of Ottawa. 2. Not only is it the backbone of the entire transit system, but the busiest, central portion of the route, Albert and Slater, is on-street rather than off the street and...

I think such the transitway should go north along Keele so the buses can also serve York University similar to JSF-1's map. Better connecting Etobicoke to York U and the Spadina subway line is a good idea, but with busway you can also connect to Mississauga and Markham and beyond. It would be...

Oh sorry I misread you, I thought you were saying to build a terminal on the northwest corner of the mall. No, I don't think any proper terminal is needed because hardly any routes need to loop there. It's only 13, 34 and 49 right now that loop, and 13 should be taken out of there anyways, and...

I'd rather see a busway in that corridor, to link the 407 and Mississauga Transitways.

If you build terminal on the west side, then 48 Erin Mills would have a long detour to connect to the 49, and the 48 is the one route that should be straight. 13 can easily be taken out of the mall without losing any connections. 46 no longer loops at the mall anyways as it now goes to the Erin...

Mississauga doesn't have many mall loops anyways. Even Erin Mills Town Centre doesn't have a loop and that's a big mall. The only malls/power centres that have loops are Square One, Westwood, and Meadowvale Town Centre. They are still needed for minor routes. Transit doesn't need to be pure...

The free market can figure out what's right and what's wrong on its own. No need for yet more government interference and red tape. That red tape is the reason why housing costs in the GTA are skycrocketing and Quebec and New Brunswick are still affordable. Luckily we now have Doug Ford as our...

It's weird they use artics on 39 Britannia now. And it's not a one time thing, I see artics on the route regularly, including last night. But then again 89 used artics too, and since 39 was extended it serves much of the same function as the old 89, but transporting Britannia riders more...

If people talking on the phone is enough to drive you out of downtown, chances are you wouldn't like it here in Mississauga either. Or anywhere for that matter. If 10% of people are rude or inconsiderate, there are still 90% who or not. If someone acts rude 10% of the time, 90% of time they are...

Yeah, that's what i remember too. Sometimes the bus isn't non-stop to Union, but usually it is. To oppose GO bus service at Kipling because of this is odd. With the introduction of 30-minute off-peak train service and all-day 103 Hurontario Express, I started taking the train at Port Credit...

I haven't used GO Milton bus since the off-peak improvements to Lakeshore, so maybe my memory is fuzzy, but I remember the GO buses serving Erindale went directly to Union without any stops in-between.

Almost all of the bus routes that serve CCTT already intersect with Hurontario Street. Those riders do not need a diversion of the LRT to be able transfer to it. 3 Bloor will serve Central Parkway station. 7 Airport will serve Eglinton station. And of course 35 Eglinton will also serve Eglinton...

The reason CCTT is located where it is is to connect with the BRT. So instead of simply finishing the BRT including a BRT station at Hurontario to connect with the LRT, they will instead divert the LRT off of Hurontario, into the BRT corridor, not only inconveniencing LRT riders but also...

Religion is just a crutch for weak-minded people. I wouldn't have minded at all if this building was destroyed completely. The French keep making a big deal about "secularism" but no surprise that secular obsession only applies to non-Christian religions.
