The latest Toronto Star column by @[email protected] takes a dig at Metrolinx's management of transit projects and calls the Waterfront East LRT an opportunity for the City of Toronto (and the #TTC) to show Metrolinx how's it's done. 😉 #TOpoli #ONpoli www.thestar.com/opinion/cont...

Matt Elliott: Why the Waterfront East LRT is a chance for Toronto to show Metrolinx the better way to build a transit project

City hall, the TTC and Waterfront Toronto need to make sure they mitigate some of the factors that have made Canada’s recent infrastructure projects some of the most expensive in the world.

Happy Easter! Given there will be a consultation for yongeTOmorrow on Tuesday April 21, I wrote a blog post explaining what happened since the project was approved by City Council in 2021. Spoiler: it's bad news for pedestrianization. #BikeTO #WalkTO #TOpoli www.twowheeledpolitics.ca/2026/04/wtf-...

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:

The Sheppard Subway Must Serve the Downsview Airport Development

Metrolinx is planning on extending the Sheppard Subway, and there is a huge opportunity to extend the line to Toronto's largest development, while the site is empty and before construction starts.
