    Mississauga Hurontario-Main Line 10 LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    Didn't someone say in this thread many many posts ago that the reason for calling that station "Fairview" was to avoid the "Central Parkway" name, which was going to be used for something else on the larger system? I used to live near there. Fairview is indeed the name of the neighbourhood...

    Mississauga Hurontario-Main Line 10 LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    I took a walk near Cooksville GO a couple of days ago, and snapped a few pictures. Hurontario and Central Parkway, looking south: And looking north (had to jaywalk for this one, but there was almost no traffic): The barrier at Hurontario and Hanson Rd. Similar to what it was a few weeks...

    Mississauga Hurontario-Main Line 10 LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    When I was in the area a couple of weeks ago, the west side sidewalk under the bridge was officially closed (between the bus stop north of the bridge at Hanson Rd., to John St.) however the barriers had been moved in an act of "civil disobedience" and people were walking through the forbidden...

    Mississauga Hurontario-Main Line 10 LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    It would make sense to do a partial opening of the line from Brampton Gateway to Square One, no? Better than nothing if the project is behind schedule.

    Mississauga Hurontario-Main Line 10 LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    Dang I hope so. The south side stop is such a stupid idea. The Gateway Terminal and Shoppers World mall are on the north side. Having people cross Steeles to get to and from the LRT is just begging for a completely preventable accident.

    Mississauga Hurontario-Main Line 10 LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    They were pouring the concrete today at Elm and Hurontario. I was in the area and snapped a few pics. Sorry for the quality, as I'm not nearly the caliber of photographer that this forum often sees.

    Problematic Park Design - Why Some Parks Don't Work

    For those too lazy to look it up, that's the Kiwanis Parkette.

    Toronto Ontario Line 3 | ?m | ?s

    Where exactly is the Lower Don Bridge? When I type that name into Google it points me to a tiny pedestrian bridge, and I don't think that's what the article is talking about.

    Mississauga Hurontario-Main Line 10 LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    A little OT but I was walking along Hurontario near this section a couple of days ago and the new hydro poles are such an eyesore to me. I still don't understand how, with the road being torn up, they couldn't grab the opportunity to bury the cables. This isn't what the future is supposed to...

    Mississauga Hurontario-Main Line 10 LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    I don't want to wade into the wider debate of system amalgamation, but on the topic of this being Line 10 and there possibly being a bus route number 10 that is confusable, I think that's basically a non-issue. A train (be it heavy rail, light rail, streetcar, or subway) is easily distinguished...

    Road Safety & Vision Zero Plan

    Yes, and this is what it reads: Lights and reflectors on bicycles, etc. (17) When on a highway at any time from one-half hour before sunset to one-half hour after sunrise and at any other time when, due to insufficient light or unfavourable atmospheric conditions, persons and vehicles on the...

    Metrolinx: Presto Fare Card

    That implies the transfer credit is $4.71, which comes from where? As I understand it, GO fares are supposed to be determined by start and end zones. Why is a transfer, within the GO system, doing anything to the price? There used to be a calculator on the GO website where you could simply...

    Mississauga Elm Public School | ?m | 2s | PDSB | Moffet & Duncan Architects Inc

    Portables are now being installed. I still don't understand why not just make the school itself bigger if you know very well that you're going to need extra space within a year.

    Mississauga Hurontario-Main Line 10 LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    On the north side, between "Kindergarten Play Area 1" and "Car Drop-Off", right against the fence over from the sidewalk. They're the tiny lines that look like dashes/hyphens against the fence. Plenty of bike room.

    Ahh, my script blocker prevented that from loading. Also it doesn't seem to be included in the meeting invite or linked from the meeting itself. Direct link: https://app.sli.do/event/2York9T6YQyS6Wp1MysiyJ/live/questions

    Mississauga Hurontario-Main Line 10 LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    Where does one ask/see the questions? I've looked everywhere and I can't find a link or place where they are. I'm watching the meeting right now and they keep talking about asking questions "in the s[omething] application" but I have no idea what that is. I can't see or upvote questions.

    Mississauga Hurontario-Main Line 10 LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    I'm just looking at the existing bridges heading east from PC. The one over Hurontario has space for two tracks on the south. Then the one over Cooksville Creek has space for one on the south. Then the one over Cawthra has space for one on the north. Building bridges is expensive so the logical...
