this capitulation is so unacceptable and just furthers the reality that transit riders and lower income folks are depriotized. 'sufferin dufferin' continues I guess, all do that a few more cars can congest neighbourhoods.

Thinking about all wasted money, time, and resources designing + engineering the bus lane/road layouts north of Bloor only to completely throw them in the trash.

Are we not going to at least do peak hour HOV lanes?? Meet in the middle like the opposition wanted? Have parking & deliveries off peak?

well the benefit of electification is that it allows for better acceleration and deceleration so more stops doesn't affect that

I'm talking about Danforth GO to Scarborough GO, the subway isn't in discussion at all here.

this seems like a harder thing to subconsciously blame on the government than food delivery (which is sort of just lumped in with food costs overall)

5 minutes to go there and back? wouldn't that make it 10 minutes

the issue is that this adds much more time and distance to anyone going from northern scarborough/markham towards Durham. If GO is to be a true regional agency it cannot continue to be so old Toronto centric with decisions and omissions like these.

well there's certainly no room for something like that in the current Metrolinx leadership unfortunately

wouldn't they have to multitrack it anyways to accommodate higher frequencies as part of the expansion?

but wouldn't this still apply to other projects? the Ontario line seeks uniquely expensive on this front

Whitney Tilson somehow even being listed is pretty indicative of the kinds of people who gamble on these sites lol

does anyone know why the Ontario line, despite making several easy decisions to make construction much cheaper (such as elevated stations like this) is somehow still the most expensive subway we've ever built?

BREAKING: A federal judge ruled all transgender and intersex people can obtain passports that align with their gender identity while the case against President Trump's executive order proceeds.

While this is good news, we will continue fighting until this executive order is blocked permanently.
