Where’s the tunnels in this picture??

That would be the concourse level visible in the photo, the tunnels would be under the concrete.

The TBM segments in the station box haven’t been removed yet?

The TBM segments in the station box haven’t been removed yet?

In fact many haven't. If they don't get to the ground level of every station by the end of summer, I say they will be really tight on time.

They need to finish the excavation of the station box before they can remove the segments. And considering how far behind Oakwood seems to be, it may be a while still before that happens.

By get to ground level, do you mean cut and cover/mine from surface to platform level, or do you mean completing the concrete pours from the platform level to the surface for concourse and ground levels?

Ok so just visited ION, they had very much fully functioning signal priority. Are people here still in doubt?

Yes, different political environment.

Not in doubt. The people in charge of the Traffic Lights here are VERY pro car and anti-streetcar. They do everything within their power to sabotage the signal priority here.

They're the exact same people who rolled out and monitor (generally favourably) the King pilot, which is not a TTC project, so it's hard to argue they're strictly pro-car and anti-streetcar.

Who Toronto Transportation Services? They didnt roll it out, it was City Planning that did. However, they do monitor the signals and they have to abide by the parameters of the pilot project.

In other words, they are being forced (either willingly or unwillingly) to make the signal timing as friendly as possible for streetcars.

Did you mean crap or shit? I hope they are not 4 years old.

Crap. Now, people it should be obvious I was having a sacrastic moment here.
