Many months late but I did a pilgrimage to the Line 6 Finch West LRT.

Rode from Finch West to Humber and back (with a stop at Plaza Latina)

I liked the train, comfortable and mostly smooth.

But after Chow announcement that signal priority was active… I wonder if they had to roll it back? We had to stop at almost half the red lights. This line would be amazing if only it wasn’t stopping all-the-time.

A very strong argument from @moretransitso that any westward extension of Line 4 should cross Downsview before development to save money and to create more transit ridership and enable future GO connections too:

Love to see advocacy for the Sheppard subway

However with so much density already out east in Scarborough the priority is really on serving existing residents, not a potential development in Downsview that might or might not pan out with the current halt on new condo construction.
