It's all scheduled in as a work order. They could care less if a storm came soon afterwards. That's contractingIf one postponed things like power washing because of a rain shower I can assure you it would never be done -

Exactly! Just as daily newspapers publish daily, there are always things 'coming' - showers, wars or ??? - so one just has a schedule.It's all scheduled in as a work order. They could care less if a storm came soon afterwards. That's contracting
Well, yes. Murphy's law dictates that if they didn't do it because "ah, well, it's going to rain", it wouldn't rain. Weather is fickle. There's lots of times a forecast ends up being wrong. Damned if you do, damned if you don't.It's all scheduled in as a work order. They could care less if a storm came soon afterwards. That's contracting
I'm not sure why that didn't clue in to me.If one postponed things like power washing because of a rain shower I can assure you it would never be done -
They are doing Yonge north now that will be follow by Yonge south that will ne done this year.I'm not sure why that didn't clue in to me.
Much of Yonge street north of Eglinton, right to Roehampton is being repaved and rebuilt on the east side now, with the sidewalks out on the right side. Hopefully by the end of autumn that whole area will be mostly done with roadworks and utility replacement.
Verster is taking a play out of Del Duca's playbook, having an announcement for an announcement.Sooooo. We are at summers end... when will the infamous announcement take place as promised?
Labour Day is just the unofficial end of summer. The official end is the autumnal equinox, which is September 23rd this year. You'll have to keep waiting.Sooooo. We are at summers end... when will the infamous announcement take place as promised?
The CEOs report at the Metrolinx Board Meeting last week included a statement that indicated they have agreed a set of tasks to complete the remaining work (testing, training and commissioning) with CTS, but that there are too many variables to commit to an exact opening date. The example they gave was that train-the-trainer for TTC driver training was meant to be happening now but CTS weren't able to field the full compliment of LRVs so that has been delayed, impacting the overall schedule.Verster is taking a play out of Del Duca's playbook, having an announcement for an announcement.
At this point i'm just expecting Finch will open before Eglinton.
I think it was streamed live.I tried to locate this in the meeting video but it hasn't been posted on Youtube yet.

Youtube doesn't put live streams in with regular videos now it has a separate tab for live videosI think it was streamed live.
Does this count as the announcement?Youtube doesn't put live streams in with regular videos now it has a separate tab for live videos
Politicians are too risk averse to attend an announcement about the opening date of a line, just in case it changes - they much prefer to be there on opening day!Are we still expecting the opening date announcement within 20 days?
End of Summer is Friday, September 22, 2023, and we are supposed to find out before that. I wonder whether Doug Ford and Justin Trudeau are going to make the announcement and make it a big hype deal or what exactly they have in store. Maybe Chow and Metrolinx n TTC CEO join too. Should be a star studded affair lol
