    Mayor Olivia Chow's Toronto

    thats just not true, If you give him the benefit of the doubt when he says he arrived at the check in counter an hour before the flight when the check in is supposed to still be open. Then you have to assume he would have made the flight. This is on the airline and them overbooking a flight...

    New GO Train Control+Signalling (PTC, CBTC, ETC) -- Safety & Subway-Like Frequency

    I dont think thats true, notice how alstom is suspiciously missing from the RFP's? I think theyre waiting to be the designer and builder of the trainsets for the winner. Alstom does signalling too in europe.

    King Street (Streetcar Transit Priority)

    I think hes implying a bit too much. There are "public realm improvements", "curb extensions" and "streetcar platform upgrades" which include the ones where bikes can roll on through like the one at king and portland But yea its not exactly bike lanes

    Toronto Bike Share

    Oh i remember them talking about a new app. I used the bike share the other day on the old app, which has been improved recently with a live timer. like slice said. I like the bike lane map. I wish google or someone came out with an app where you can get directions point a to b exclusively...

    Homelessness on GTA Transit (catch all)

    As people have said before you really have to ask "why are they that way" people dont just become addicted when they have a good life. When the Spanish solution to homelessness is literally give them homes, give them jobs, prevent people from losing their homes. How can we say we have tried...

    Homelessness on GTA Transit (catch all)

    https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/david-eby-public-drug-use-1.7186245 somewhat relevant. Though I understand why. I think this is only the start of the move back towards criminalizing drug use everywhere

    King Street (Streetcar Transit Priority)

    Back in November when the streetcars were backed up end to end from peter to church, It was the intersection blockers at bay and yonge that really stood out to me, as soon as you pass the intersection it was clear all the way past church. This is an anecdote but Its not really clear to me which...

    King Street (Streetcar Transit Priority)

    Of course the city can do red light cameras but I dont think you can source something saying red light running is the primary cause of the delays? Its people who enter the intersection on a green light and end up stuck there blocking streetcars. Question is whether you can actually call that...

    King Street (Streetcar Transit Priority)

    the last time I used the shuttle was years ago in 2019, but what I remember is the shuttle going up York to wellington, across then down Simcoe all the way to queens quay, then across to Bathurst. This would allow them to use king street all the way to Bathurst then down to Billy bishop, the...

    King Street (Streetcar Transit Priority)

    from the above: - those new traffic signals at church and yonge are being monitored on a trial basis. They hope to be able to use them instead of officers. Also noting that they cant do any automated enforcement without HTA ammendments - theyre adding the raised platforms at more stops coming...
