Isn't the station just going to be at the existing Mississauga Transitway Renforth Station?

Apparently. I thought it was going to be end-to-end with the station. Not right up to Commerce on the north side - 300 to 400 metres from Renforth.

Yes, there is no such thing as Commerce Station. Renforth Station is at Commerce Blvd and connected to the Mississauga Transitway.

I never said there was. Simply where the stops (not stations) were originally planned. So the Line 5 Commerce stop would have been at the now Mississauga Renforth Station. And there'd have been another stop 400-metres further east, in Toronto, on the east side of Renforth.

Recall that the names for this, and the Mississauga Transitway, had not been finalized back when this 2010 report was done. I simply assumed that the new Line 5 Renforth Station would be closer to Renforth than the Miway Station.

Is it open for revenue service yet?

Been trying to find where exactly the city limits are around Renforth Station (and up to the proposed Pearson Transit Hub. Both Google Maps and Apple Maps don't show.

If you search a city by name in Google Maps, it comes up with boundaries and colour highlighting. Whether they are precisely correct I don't know.

I tried searching Mississauga and it seems to show correctly. Many maps of Mississauga show the pre-2010 borders before some land was transferred from Milton to Mississauga (from Ninth Line to 407), so I'm guessing it is accurate.

There are many very precise maps online, showing detail down to individual buildings and lot lines. Arcgis.com is one place to look. Most municipalities have these maps on line for zoning etc. Mpac does also for property tax assessments. Google maps isn’t the right tool for this.

Don't like the construction disruptions? Better avoid the south end of Scarlett Road at St. Clair Avenue West & Dundas Street West. They're finishing off the utility work there, then the real construction on a new wider underpass there begins. See

Roads: Scarlett Road / CP Rail Bridge EA

So, in classic Toronto fashion, nothing has been done here for the last couple of months since Enbridge completed their utility relocation. Stops and starts. Ho hum - the usual zero sense of urgency, despite this project being on the books for what, 15 years now?

When is this thing planned to open? Any chance it will be open earlier than the east?

No, but a tunneled LRT running exclusively through Etobicoke would be quite funny

Not really. Doug Ford's home is near Royal York & Eglinton (near the stream you see in the image below, south of Lawrence). His riding, Etobicoke North borders the line northwest of Martin Grove & Eglinton. So no surprise, he doesn't want to see the peasants who would pass him in his SUV.

Acciona is just as horrid, if not even worse than SNC aka AtkinsRealis.

Aecon and Ellis Don are more competent than Acciona.

So essentially, we're in for it now. I've made a number of posts in the past pointing out Acciona's ineptitude.

AECOM is already the Delivery Partner (one of the project consultants) on ECWE so they were never in the running for this.
