    Toronto Crosstown LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx | Arcadis

    Yonge and Eglinton is a complete zoo while they try to restore the roadway. Traffic is sharing a single lane both directions with a signal person just east of Yonge.

    Toronto Ontario Line 3 | ?m | ?s

    They have to match the TBM tunnel depth or they'll have to buy a whole strip of land both south and north of the station to demolish homes and do some cut and cover. That's definitely a no go these days.

    TTC: Other Items (catch all)

    I bet they would wall it off with plexiglass if violence gets worst in the subway or if an employee gets attacked more often.

    Toronto Crosstown LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx | Arcadis

    Yonge and Eglinton was still a huge mess on Monday. The sides of the roadway and bike lane were still a foot deep. Let's see if it actually open up on Friday.

    Finch West Line 6 LRT

    We will see how well this "Transit City" lead development would goes. The target (back in 2008) is midrise blocks along the whole corridor oppose to high rise development at stations only.

    Toronto Crosstown LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx | Arcadis

    If they want people to slow down, time the lights to sync to a certain speed. Instead they try to piss everyone off which leads to more speeding to try to make those lights.

    I'm not exactly sure the 65 is experiencing heavy loading cause TTC didn't scheduled enough buses or because of congestion. Both the 65 and 75 get stuck in traffic towards the south end which leads to very uneven headways which is why one would often see heavy loading. The 121 does not suffer...

    You are just bashing the TTC and this fact with no historical background. The table doesn't mention it is a comparison between two different routes, the 121 Fort York-Esplanade vs. the current 121 Esplanade-River. The former route just gets stuck at Union Station and by 2020 it reach a badly...

    TTC: Other Items (catch all)

    Doesn't matter, even with exclusive rails like line 2, they still manage to create a long backlog at the terminals.

    TTC: Other Items (catch all)

    I drove passed by the area a few minutes after the accident. The 73B bus making a right being in that location gave it a way that she was smack pretty hard by the bus. Just say someone laying face down motionless right at the corner by the green fence. It's quite hard to see with at the corner...

    It is cause the lines didn't open, they got the money to improve service. Let's hope next year's budget is better

    Finch West Line 6 LRT

    Especially when it’s a crappy presentation. Other parts of the world would at least sweep all the rocks and dirt from the side of the path. Some colours would be a nice touch.

    Roads: Ontario/GTA Highways Discussion

    I guess it is much easier with GPS these days. Reading it from a provincial map back in the 80s wouldn't be as easy. Destinations were designed for navigation till Mike Harris destroyed the system.

    Roads: Ontario/GTA Highways Discussion

    Except by removing the 115 designation, it makes it more difficult to navigate. You'll see 35 on the map and 407 connecting to it. You'll tell them to stay on the 35 so it becomes the 407 eastbound. With the 115 designation, you simply tell anyone to follow 115 from the 401 to Peterborough.

    Finch West Line 6 LRT

    Whenever they aim for a certain year, they always seem to aim for December 31st of that year.

    It's called connecting link: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Connecting_Link It's a program where Ontario pays the cities to subsidies maintenance of those roadway and are designed as provincial highways.

    Roads: Gardiner Expressway catch-all, incl. Hybrid Design (2015-onwards)

    Look no further than the 427. Plenty of weaving and RIRO ramps on the collectors. It's quite difficult to navigate for unfamiliar drivers.

    Roads: Gardiner Expressway

    The trick was to spot the length of the queue when coming down the ramp. Make a lane change to the right and a quick manoeuvre onto Logan if clear and use Commissioners to get on Carlaw. Then to avoid lengthy delays on Carlaw cause everyone is making a left to Eastern those days, you either...

    Imagine what one operator had a bad case of diarrhea would do to the line.

    TTC: Other Items (catch all)

    The problem with Dupont St is all the condo and road work are popping up creating lane closures making the road very difficult to transverse. Buses are often late and large gaps are created driving riders to opt for a direct connect to the subway instead. It also makes less sense to use such a...
