    The region of Peel is planning to expand the shelter near Erin Mills Pkwy and Millcreek Dr. From the notice on the region's procurement portal:

    Intercity Bus Services

    The talk about Linx reminded me to check for a progress update on the Bruce-Dufferin-Grey-Wellington regional transit study. In an April 2026 update to the project page, I found a slideshow with a map of routes under study. However, there isn't enough money to fund every route. In a May...

    Cycling infrastructure (Separated bike lanes)

    This is great investigative work @TwoWheelPoli! In practical wayfinding terms, for those coming from Toronto, I suspect it's probably better just to take the Queensway path, and then head south on Stillmeadow/Lynchmere or Stavebank. It might be a touch less scenic though.

    Mississauga Toronto | Lakeview Village | ?m | ?s | Argo Developments | Sasaki

    I have no objection to Lakeview Village park (dark green), which has a $35 million capital budget in the city's 10-year parks capital budget. See the city renderings below from the city's recent environmental review. My objection is to the pier, which I thought was a separate project. I...

    Mississauga Toronto | Elm Public School | ?m | 2s | PDSB | Moffet & Duncan Architects Inc

    This isn't directly related to Elm, but on the subject of overcrowding, the province has announced it will re-open the former St. Gertrude catholic elementary school, near McLaughlin and Bristol, as a public school. The province says this will create capacity for 790 new students. It's a bit...

    Mississauga Toronto | Lakeview Village | ?m | ?s | Argo Developments | Sasaki

    @TwoWheelPoli mentioned the Lakeview Pier in his blog yesterday, which reminded me that a funding request for the pier came before the Peel regional council last week. The regional council agreed to pay $5 million towards the $120 million cost. Most of the cost is already covered by the province...

    Church Street Pedestrianization Pilot

    The Waterfront Trail in Etobicoke is very popular in summers, but people have to dodge the occasional car. A few well-placed Jersey barriers on Lake Promenade would stop through traffic, but not block any driveways. In terms of a full closure, I would consider Norris Crescent or the section of...

    Mississauga 7114 Hurontario Street | ?m | 10s | J Dass Company

    On the Mississauga committee of adjustment agenda next month, there is a request for a minor variance for a new hotel at Hurontario and Derry. There is also a variance request for an addition to the convention centre next door. I believe that both are owned by the same company, JDass. A google...

    GO Transit: Service thread (including extensions)

    Metrolinx has now said Stratford trains will be 6-car lengths. Also, the Stratford GO page still doesn't list Stratford Transit as a connection, even though the bus terminal is a short walk across the street from the station.

    Toronto Toronto | GO Transit: Davenport Diamond Grade Separation | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    Metrolinx says the pedestrian bridge over the CP tracks is due to be installed late next month. Also it has posted new photos.

    GO Transit: Service thread (including extensions)

    This was just posted to GO's website. Aside from being under the wrong header, it says Presto will not be available for Stratford. I also think it should emphasize PC Connect more.

    GO Transit: Service thread (including extensions)

    I still can't find the new GO bus strategy publicly, but in my searching I did find a different Metrolinx document which references the Regional Express bus plan in general terms.

    GO Transit: Construction Projects (Metrolinx, various)

    The appendix at the very bottom (pg. 122) contains a summary of goals and progress towards them. Quite a lot of them relate to human resources. I won't copy them all, but here are a few.
