    General cycling issues (Is Toronto bike friendly?)

    Okay Read it. The reimbursement part isnt that bad, ONLY IF the city isnt doing the construction. If the province is doing it then it doesnt matter. The city can ask for costs related to providing utility and signage drawings. The city cant ask for the costs of installation originally which was...

    Toronto Rail Deck Development | 239.43m | 72s | LIUNA | Sweeny &Co

    Im going to throw my 0.02 here. "perfection should not be the enemy of progress" Sure having the entire park built instantly would be great, but thats not realistic. A small park is good enough. Knowing the city, they wont ever shell out the money for the park, but hypothetically we can get...

    Cycling infrastructure (Separated bike lanes)

    While that route is an option, remember the point of "complete streets" isn't just to get bike lanes. but to lower speeds, accidents and deaths of car users, pedestrians and cyclists Bike lanes just help do that. Why do you think that speed camera makes so much money on parkside?

    Quebec-Windsor Corridor

    That doesnt solve anything. Theyre just going to say its over budget anyway.

    Quebec-Windsor Corridor

    "cost plus" contracts do not work. Thats one of the big reasons why the US DOD's spending is so wacked. "oh yea this soap dispenser cost us $250,000, so we will charge you $300,000"

    Toronto The Well | 174.03m | 46s | RioCan | Hariri Pontarini

    As a follow up to this. Went to the well and the whole area beside the national is open now. Lots of seating. Absolutely nothing there. Cool little hallway moving between sweetie pie and the national. National's opening is next week iirc On a different note. I tried Crumbl cookies and it still...

    Cycling infrastructure (Separated bike lanes)

    The staff report on bill 212 is out. https://www.toronto.ca/legdocs/mmis/2024/cc/bgrd/backgroundfile-250545.pdf The headline grabber is 48 million base cost and the city arguing it should be paid another 25 for the cost of installing them in the first place A bigger piece is that the staff note...

    Toronto The Well | 174.03m | 46s | RioCan | Hariri Pontarini

    Its both, alongside the national there might be upwards of 10 more stalls opening up on the other side of sweetie pie. That area has yet to open. The retail brochure hasnt been updated in a year but heres some screenshots of what to expect:

    Finch West Line 6 LRT

    Counterpoint is that the only models that have been tested and failed the last few years are the old type of p3's. Where all risk is transferred to the partner. Now its things like "developmental phase" and "alliance model" like we see with the USEP
