YES finally a Sunday service for 107 malton express! Long overdue!

The 107 getting Sunday service is amazing, hoping it heads to Humber College for all 7 days of the week when the Finch LRT opens (which could possibly be the next service change after this one if all goes well with that).

Introducing the 135 is nice also. However it should eventually be an all day express route and head to Pearson or Viscount as well. It reminds me of when the 100 was still around, and the 135 feels like a more useful variant of that route.

I know I'm putting the cart before the horse considering it feels like getting 2WAD service on Milton Line is still a pipe dream, but I have to wonder about if or when that happens - will the line get more infill stations? It'll effectively be a subway for Mississauga, and it would be awesome to see more TOD communities. Cawthra maybe would be a good candidate considering how close it is to Dundas to take advantage of the intersecting BRT?

No more stops on the Milton line please. It takes long enough as it is.

Don’t worry when it’s electric it will accelerate and stop faster making up for lots of time. 2058 can’t come soon enough.

The only place a new station could go is Dundas-Catwra as it would connect to the BRT but very liittle development as well employment land. It only needs to be a 5/6 car platform. It would cut down on travel time for Dundas rider to Kipling as its a 10 minute walk to the Dixie Station. It would also require an extra transfer from the BRT to the LRT to get to the Cooksville GO Station.

I was asked during the writting of the Big Move what I thought about more GO stations and stated that there is needs for more GO stations that should be walkin that are haft the current size with no parking lots. You would need to run different types of service for lines with a lot more stations from the current milkruns to Express from various stations along with different typres of service between them. Not all trains need to be full lenght but various lenghts.

If I was going to add a go stop I would at mavis. Then I would heavily encourage as much development from cooksville to erindale and the MCC area. Mavis is just surrounded by the ford dealership and some other businesses on huge pieces of land. You could densify a lot while encouraging transit use at the same time.

Too close to Cooksville and employment land. There is currently no transit south of the 403 on it considing I been pushing for it to Dundas and then to Cooksville over a decade.

I didn’t realize there was not transit south of 403. How do people get to credit valley tennis club?

Yes it is close.to both stations. Maybe 2kms apart. So it’s practically subway like spacing which is why I’m suggesting subway like density.

Once again I don’t understand some of these employement lands. For instance some of them are factories which have giant payed playgrounds for kids in them. It’s not exactly like we’re hosting oracle, research in motion, apple, google, workday, adobe, offices. Instead some of these employement lands have storage container boxes. How many people are you employing in these types of places that you’re saving this valuable land for.

You have to drive to the tennis courts as there is no transit there for it.

There is a chemical plant north of Central Pkwy, car dealership, scrap yards, Hydro offic and yard all south of Burnhamthorpe with low density houses backing onto Mavis between Burnhamthorpe and the 403 as well for all of Mavis.

I have recommended a split 61 with one going down to Dundas, east on Dundas to the Cooksville GO station. It does two things. One get riders to/from the GO station and the other is eliminate a transfer off the 1 or the 101 as well takes pressure off the 2 and CCTT.

The city is kicking thenselves badly on empolymentr land as there is more than enough land to have a mix use development, not the single to 4 story buildings along the major transit corridors or any corridor thjey want. A plan was proposed to redevople part of the plaza at Creditview and Burnhamphorpe as mixed-use and the city shot it down.

Was fixing a photo I shot in 2012 of Budapest skyline shot from the castel that shows a flat line skyline of buildings no taller than 12 stories at best other than for a few churchs towers. The city only wanted the building to slope up to Duke of York with 12 stories at Elora Dr at the start of the slop until M City came along. Absolute was to be the tallest building in Mississauga and it only happen when it won the World Contest choesn by the residents of the city, otherwise the 39 story tower at Kingsbridge would have been the tallest. Now we are seeing 50/60-72 story towers been proposed to the point that Block 11 for Parkside village may end up being taller than M3 considering it was only plan to be 50 storys over a decade ago. with a model of it showing its new height at the City Hall display now.

AS far as I am concern, transit has suck and will suck city wide until council gets out of the car driver seat and built the system they said that needed to hapen back in 2005. Transit per residents has fallen since 2000 when I first strated dealing with transit issues.

Actually I do drive there. But there is an actual bus stop there. I don’t know where the bus comes from though

Oh so you were just saying that they made a mistake to make this huge area employement lands. Well it’s their choice to change the zoning. Seems like a relatively easy fix.

Also if you want a mid rise city you need to build really wide. So even by those standards this has been a mistake. Because there’s not enough land at just MCC to fit enough mixed use and make a city.
