Are all these proposals east of Keele even gonna get built? Who actually wants to live here? I dont see a good way to develop this area into a decent neighbourhood unless you tear everything down and rebuild slowly with community elements first. EDIT: meant east of Jane but there are some at 7...

The Contract for 400 to County Road 4 is also being tendered right now: https://www.raqs.merx.com/public/contract/contractsByRegionView.jsf?contractId=609298726 I like this website as you can go back and see each bidders cost after award. Some bids are very close!

What happened on the Barrie line this morning? Sinkhole south of Downsview?

2023 coming to a close with asphalt in December! Big push here by Kenaidan to get this area wrapped up before winter season. West platform looks to be complete with just finishes ongoing to the 2 elevator/stair buildings. Next stage is always interesting, at Rutherford they used a combo of a...

Geese and a plane!

The design review panel video is up: https://vaughancloud.sharepoint.com/sites/videos/_layouts/15/stream.aspx?id=%2Fsites%2Fvideos%2Fud%2FJuly%2027th%2C%202023%2C%20Design%20Review%20Panel%2C%20Virtual%20Meeting%20%2D%20Open%20Session%2DVideo%201%2Emp4&ga=1. Here's some highlights:

I've been checking the Design Review Panel website every day for the past month waiting for the presentation video to be uploaded 😅

https://www.metrolinx.com/en/news/construction-progress-continues-at-maple-go Poorly written article with a bunch of mistakes but at least an update 😕. They should just hire some UT'ers to write these. I also like how they include "This wall safely separates the corridor from public access."...

Meh that picture pretty much means nothing. If it is moving now (anyone see dump trucks hauling dirt away as previous poster noted?), it still had a major issue and was stuck for at least the past 3 months. MX isnt going to say anything because in the modern day no one can admit to liability (or...

This one is wrapped up and the Maple GO Bus Loop and Station works are nearing completion. Decent little plaza out front but we'll see if they can find a tenant for that space. None of the retail spots along Eagle Rock in Indigo 1 and 2 have rented out yet. Not enough density?

Another 2-month smokey update for Maple GO. Structural well progressed on the south end with roofing ongoing and formwork moved to the north end of the platform. Slab-on-grade also completed on the east platform south tunnel excavation. Plenty of works ongoing at the bus loop and new station...

The 5:48 Barrie train this morning had an operational issue past Downsview and was almost 2 hours late delaying every train behind it as well. Some passengers onboard that train are saying on Twitter that it was announced that a crew change was needed - anyone know why this would happen? Haven't...

No tweets on tunneling progress since the start in January and lots of piling ongoing just across the street from the launch shaft. Diggy Scardust may be in a bit of trouble...

Moody's has downgraded their rating of Crosslinx. Article is attached. Key highlights: Concurrent with the rating change, Moody's changed the rating outlook to stable from negative, reflecting Moody's view that despite the delay and some additional risk, incremental time has been granted...

Is 3.5 years today based on a 2020 completion date? Where did 2020 come from? I see that referenced a lot but it seems to be just a government announcment back in 2011? The contract says September 2021.

Interesting that they've now moved it north of Highway 7 and the IBC now makes sense (with the 407 Transitway connection no longer there). The development potential in this area is insane and proposals are already coming in - could be VMC East in 30 years.

Anyone know why Canadas Wonderland doesn't want Canadas Wonderland Drive to become public? Vaughan's 2051 Transportation Plan even has a 400 flyover there that is noted as: "Block 32 mid-block flyover is technically justified but will not be implemented as per council resolution." If that road...

Then what are you referencing in the Eglinton Crosstown thread? One of the key aspects of P3's IS fixed price and schedule WITH disincentives to being delayed.

Have you read the contract? What you're describing is simply not true.
