    Toronto Toronto | Eglinton Line 5 | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx | Arcadis

    As of ~10:15pm on Sunday travelling westbound from Kennedy to Eglinton - Dwell time is measured from doors open to departing. - Distances as per this reddit post - Driving was not as aggresive as Line 6 but still reached top speed of 52km/h. The average speed of the surface portion was slightly...

    Finch West Line 6 LRT

    I didn't keep track so I might have exagerated the percentage, and I have edited my original post to make the description more accurate. Some of the intersections were stop and go so it might not have affected the overall travel time that much.

    Finch West Line 6 LRT

    Travel time as of Sunday ~7:30pm. - Dwell time is measured from doors open to departing. - Distances are measured on google maps, so they might not be 100% accurate. - Driving was aggresive, constantly hitting 55km/h even at short sections. - Speed restrictions at 35km/h through intersection and...

    Finch West Line 6 LRT

    Report on my Line 6 ride today after 7pm: - Acceleration and braking were much more aggresive than a month ago, maybe even more so than on Line 5. The drivers seemed to be gunning it and we constantly hit 55-60km/h. - TSP was there but it seems the timing was not adjusted to the improved...

    Finch West Line 6 LRT

    Does it mean they are ending the soft opening phase starting next week?

    Finch West Line 6 LRT

    I took the entire Line 6 from Humber College and Finch West and had a few pleasent (and one very unpleasent) surprises: - Boarded the train at around 7:15 PM, and it took only 36 min 15 seconds to Finch West! - We only stopped at 4 or 5 lights throughout the entire journey, each around 30...

    What the hell have they been doing with all the late night and weekend closures when we are getting more slow zones day by day?

    Cycling infrastructure (Separated bike lanes)

    Even though I drive way more than cycling into downtown, I am a huge supporter of properly designed bike lanes. I have submitted the comment below to Bill 212 (enhanced by AI) and hope to advocate for more bike infrastructure from the viewpoint of a driver.

    General cycling issues (Is Toronto bike friendly?)

    I fully agree with the first part of your reply. As a person who drove and biked along Bloor and Willowdale numerous times, I am not buying the suggestion of adding a travel lane/turning lane in place of street parking on these two streets. This will only induce traffic and increase conflict...

    GO Transit: Service thread (including extensions)

    I think you are right. They have addressed my concern here, probably we should expect a slew of go train disruptions where they will run replacement buses. Still doesn't explain why late night services to the airport have to be cut. "if your trip is affected, please wait for the next...

    GO Transit: Service thread (including extensions)

    It seems like there are major service cuts across the majority of the bus network. Is it something that we are expecting due to the spring semester approaching? 94 is just one example which I routinely use to head to the airport from North York, and I would have thought the summer travel season...

    Toronto Toronto | Lower Don Lands Redevelopment | ?m | ?s | Waterfront Toronto

    Pure speculation... Looking at the damage at the back of the car, maybe another car hit it from behind and then lost control? Still doesn't explain your question though.

    Toronto Toronto | Lower Don Lands Redevelopment | ?m | ?s | Waterfront Toronto

    I was looking at the other way and then heard a tire screech, and when I looked around all I saw was the car "flying" into the river. I would say the car was fast but probably not speeding. I was there only to enjoy the sight of the frozen river under the new Cherry Bridge, and then this...
