This line is not close to be open cone Dec 7 or Dec 15 with all kinds of construction material along the street as well the cycling lanes out of service. Then you got the mest at York Gate that can take 10 minutes to west from Jane and 3-10 minutes to east depending how backup the left turn lane.
Most of all, scheduling and headway all over the place with the line been very slow. Looks like TTC was trying to maintain a 10 minute schedule that work at times to 3-15 minutes other times. Until there is a few weeks of maintaining a 10 minute headway, it will be seen as a mistake to have this line in place of existing buses or a BRT.
Pass an eastbound car that caught up to me at Albion Rd and was 10 minutes behind me when I hit the 400 stop doing the speed limit. Only made it as far as Jane with videos and photos that will follow later.
Did see a crew picking up pillions going west and still a large amount of them to be pickup. Did noticed in a few places that the curb still had asphalt in place of concrete.
Having watched both Line 5 and 6 being built as well operating so far as well the Hurontario LRT, LRT on the surface in the GTAH will not work with the current thinking of Transportation planners as welll transit planners. As much as I hate to say this, time to move to elevated lines as traffic is killing transit and creating longer travel time for riders.
As a note, I call them stations.
