    Mississauga Toronto | Square One District | ?m | 65s | Oxford Properties | Hariri Pontarini

    I agree. The volume of car traffic on this stretch has already been reduced. With the single lane and the frequent pedestrian crossings I get the sense that plenty of drivers already avoid it by default. Fully pedestrianizing it wouldn't be too big a shock. Personally I find the best execution...

    I noticed that on this illustration the location of the current transit terminal is labelled "Station Gate Rd". I do appreciate the E/W woonerf on this concept.

    Supplying these for context. These images are from pages 10 and 11 of Appendix D of the Downtown Movement Plan final report.

    Square One Drive and City Centre Drive Extension

    Some new project documents were uploaded today here. A bit short on details: the alignment for the City Centre drive extension "will be developed in the next phase of the project". I.e. no word on whether they'll wait for the Morguard building to be torn down, or if the extension will loop...

    Mississauga Toronto | Hurontario-Main Line 10 LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    Wow. Where is this from? The loop is like...the fourth most-interesting part of this snippet! Is that (5) meant to be another westward extension of the Crosstown? And what is (7) and (9)?

    Mississauga Toronto | Hurontario-Main Line 10 LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    I'm more and more convinced that a loop is a bad idea. But if a loop has to happen, these would be my preferred service patterns. (A) Hurontario Express. Bypasses loop completely. Robert Speck functions as a transfer stop to B, C, D services. (B) Port Credit - City Centre, running...

    Mississauga Toronto | Exchange District Condos | 232m | 72s | Camrost-Felcorp | Arcadis

    10 January 2026. The decorative lighting takes on an interesting effect in nighttime fog.

    Metrolinx: Other Items (catch all)

    The Ontario auditor general is supposed to be looking into how Metrolinx decides on station placement for the Ontario Line and the Yonge north extension. Source: Article from last September. This is not a direct answer to your question, but I'd like to flag something that might be coming out...

    Mississauga Toronto | Hurontario-Main Line 10 LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    These are some great shots, as always. What's going on in the median of the bridge over the 403? Are those meant to be travel lanes? I could never tell when I'm driving past.

    Mississauga Toronto | Hurontario-Main Line 10 LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    This would go a long way toward making that corner of city centre more walkable. The recommended alignment would only be possible with the redevelopment of 55 City Centre, though. And the 2022 Downtown Movement Plan says as much. I notice that the scale model has a couple of placeholder towers...

    Mississauga Toronto | Mississauga Transitway | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx | IBI Group

    I thought this was interesting so I looked it up. Folks here might already be familiar with this context, but it bears reiterating now that there's some movement on it. 1.) The 2022 Mississauga Downtown Movement Plan lists the Downtown Mississauga Terminal and Transitway Connection ("DMTTC") as...

    Thanks for this. There was a higher-res version posted on reddit. Here's the loop zoomed in...

    Mississauga Toronto | 3680 Hurontario Street | ?m | 71s

    Not a professional opinion, but my best guess is it's soil remediation. I do recall looking up the company name on the equipment on site and it came up with something like this.

    Mississauga Toronto | Mississauga Transitway | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx | IBI Group

    Thanks for digging this up. With the overall build-out, no. Right now the signage at City Centre Terminal is atrocious, though, and the layout isn't immediately obvious to anyone who isn't yet familiar with it from use. Some important platforms are not where you'd think you'd find them. So...

    Mississauga Toronto | Alba | 109.1m | 32s | Edenshaw | Core Architects

    2025-05-21. The view from the parks to its east might be its most flattering angle.
