    TTC: Easier Access Phase III

    From Steve Munro's blog - Easier Access Phase III Service Changes taking effect on Sunday, February 8. The 31 Greenwood will be cut back from Coxwell Station to Greenwood Station. I haven't seen anything about Greenwood's elevators being in service yet... has anyone been by recently? The 149...

    Finch West Line 6 LRT

    The 336 goes straight across Highway 27 and turns left onto John Garland to reach Finch. The 36C rerouting has it turn left on Highway 27 to get to Finch directly.

    Yes, the stop out front on Islington is a school route. Far from 'decent'. The nearest regular service is 2.8km away at Islington and Napa Valley, served by the 13 (which has no weekend service) and the 85. YRT's 6 route coming this year will stop at Major Mack and Islington, reducing the...

    GO Transit: Service thread (including extensions)

    No, the 15 has been around for quite a while. The new segment is the Brantford - Six Nations/Mississaugas of the Credit leg.

    TTC: Other Items (catch all)

    Prior to the bus lane being added on Spadina, afternoon peak 510 buses were turning back via Front and Blue Jays Way instead of running to Queens Quay.

    VIVA + York Region Transit

    Some interesting stuff here, including some service to Gormley GO (albeit as MOR). The mention of the return of the 51 Keswick Local is interesting, as a user on the CPTDB forum noted that it appears the 51 is returning during PM peak as of today. This was not mentioned in the January 7 service...

    I live close to this development. Obviously I'll spend more time looking at when the documents are up, but I'm excited for this. The Rexall was built here maybe around 2010? It was rarely busy, and now Larry the Liquidator is in the same boat. This is a better use of the land for sure.

    TTC: Other Items (catch all)

    A few years ago, during some Line 1 closures (probably 2017?), they operated 32X, 52X, 186X and 196X non-stop branches across the U. Those only lasted for a few closures, so I'm not sure how successful they were.

    Quoting from Steve Munro's piece on the 2022 ASP: "The TTC expects that the new route 34 will run every 15 to 20 minutes."

    I'm curious if they plan to turn back some service at Science Centre Station. I remember reading somewhere they wanted headways around 15 minutes during peaks on the new 34, so it is possible they may have service be half-hourly east of Science Centre.

    I completely agree that they could (and should), but this is Toronto after all.

    Beechborough, which is Castlefield west of Strathnairn has many speed bumps. I guess it was easier to route it via Kincourt and Ingram then have to wrangle with the city over removing them. The short detour to Danesbury is awkward, but it makes sense. The right turn from Roselawn to Marlee on...
