I agree, that Guildwood GO addition is looking really questionable as it currently stands.

Any word on them ebikes? Would be cool to have them in the different zones so people could use them to travel between zones.

If only subway infrastructure was this quick haha.
Todays subway stations are Corktown, Gerrard East, Pape, Thorncliffe Park.

I'd settle for 'This year's subway stations are'
That's something we actually came pretty close to achieving in the 70s.
Lawrence and York Mills opened in 1973
Sheppard and Finch in 1974
Spadina subway in 1977 (Spadina, Dupont, St. Clair West, Eglinton West, Glencairn, Lawrence West, Yorkdale and Wilson)
Kennedy and Kipling in 1980
So for a 8-year period Toronto opened 2 or more stations in 4 different years. Can one imagine?
14 stations total.

Would love to see incremental increases to our transit network. Line 2 can be extended incrementally towards Sherway Gardens for instance. Yonge North could begin with Steeles and coordinate with land use changes to Yonge & Cummer and Yonge & Steeles. Eglinton Crosstown once built, could also be incrementally extended east of Kennedy.

Unfortunately this makes far too much sense and our politicians are bozos who dont understand this concept. For some reason a subways has to stretch all the way into Vaughan in one shot, and then stretch all the way to Richmond Hill in another shot.
The piecemeal approach in extending subway lines makes far more sense, but that's Toronto and Ontario politics for you.

Why was it achievable in the 70's?

Now Scarborough just needs actual separated bike lines for these bikes to ride on!

From your post to Becky Katz' ears.
How to get that past the Scarborough Councillors...........that's another problem.

There are some decent off road trails that connect to most of those locations fortunately

I wont get into it too much here since this is a Bike Share thread, but simply put politicians back then had some more common sense (ie: real common sense, not the fake "common sense revolution BS").
But since we're talking about bikes, having any transit built at a piecemeal approach today is akin having bike lanes built in this city today: Painfully slow, and laughably methodical.
