Wow. I saw the footings going in yesterday afternoon, but that was fast!

Hamilton’s solution to the Salvation Army centre across the street: https://bsky.app/profile/joeycoleman.ca/post/3m5zedyya4c2n

Yeah, anymore whinging about Dundas or Ryerson will be deleted. Not in the name of “political correctness” but in the name of staying on topic and not resurrecting tired debates.

Though I cling to several old names – SkyDome, Hurontario LRT – because they are unique and I have issues with what and how they got their new names, I’m not going to miss the name Dundas Station. The new name is fine. Dundas Street is still there in the signage. Be thankful Cadillac Fairview...

Signage coming down, plywood boards going up. Link to my BlueSky account as I’m unable to post photos on UT right now. https://bsky.app/profile/seanyyz.bsky.social/post/3m5wa4mbjus25

Yep. Tried to post photos from my iPhone just now. Saying “the uploaded file is too large for the server to process”

The TTC online notice features a 505 busitution!

Definitely still called Eglinton West at subway platform level.

If you’re headed to the subway the new entrances to Cedarvale Station are acceptable, but definitely not for the bus terminal. It’s strange how Metrolinx signage uses North and south for Line 1 directions but TTC uses terminal station names for Line 1 directions.

Just like every weekend GO train to Bramalea and Mount Pleasant!

We also need to end the on-street parking fee exemption and no parking zone exemption for vehicles displaying a disability card. Now that it’s easier than ever to pay by app, and given how many very expensive cars I see with them, parked in the same area day after day and construction workers...

This really pisses me off. The exteriors of these row houses are among the best preserved in Toronto and were just given work a few years ago with the hotel construction. There’s so little left of Jarvis Street between Carlton and Adelaide. Meanwhile the old RCMP building (Grand Hotel) remains a...

It's TMU's answer to U of T's Campus One.

The other model was Vienna’s City Airport Train, but there, too, was a cheaper, somewhat slower S-Bahn option which my spouse and I took partly because it was cheaper and it stopped closer to the hotel booked for the conference she was attending.

The 1980 trumpet interchange is definitely underbuilt for current traffic flows, especially the south-to-east ramp, but I agree, this seems to be overcompensating.

When Woodbine GO Station opens, it could be an ideal terminus for a few Miway routes too. The 142 could be a good option. It would be good too to improve transfers at Derry and Airport Road, which right now is a really hostile place to be despite all the bus routes passing by. Bigger shelters...

I have a real soft spot for trolley buses, but I only see new systems coming on line where overhead wire is practical for a long, relatively straight section with minimal special work where many buses can charge, then continue off wire. At the same time, it doesn’t make as much sense anymore for...

The driver has a mobile phone with a credit/debit card reader for those last minute purchases; it is also used to verify QR codes on printed or mobile tickets. (Ontario Northland, being a government agency, is more forgiving too of things, especially since they operate almost exclusively in...
