Scarborough is already served by subway...
I think subway extension along Dundas to connect to Hurontario LRT would make sense. An LRT line to serve the same purpose would be rather short. Dundas is as busy as Yonge (20,000 boardings per weekday for 1/101/201 combined in 2012), and entirely commercial, so it's not like the ridership or redevelopment potential is not there.
The primary purpose of such an extension would be serve Dundas, and integrate it with Bloor-Danforth, rather than merely give Mississauga riders a connection to downtown.
Compelling argument.
Anyone who proposes a transit hub for Mississauga at Sherway clearly doesn't know much about Mississauga. Any transit hub for eastern Mississauga would be at Cloverdale, not Sherway.
Doady I respect you, but Mississauga is not getting a subway because Mississauga does not want won. Maybe this should be a central issue in the mayoral campaign.
