In the mornings it’s fine. I passed by around 10:30am this morning. It was pretty clear but once it reaches the afternoon, it can be backed up before Laird.

Yeah, or even past Sutherland if its around that sweet spot between school being out and rush hour (4-5 pm).
That being said, hopefully the Crosstown makes a big enough dent in that gridlock come time. And I mostly mean for the future....especially since Leslie and Eglinton will continue to be a choke point for all users, including when it opens, Crosstown vehicles in rush hour.

Can confirm from Mx that RSD started yesterday.

Once they achieve 3 consecutive weeks of RSD without any problems they can technically start the process of certifying Substantial Completion.

I suspect the RSD and bedding in period will happen concurrently.
We will know for sure once finch lrt hits its 30 days and the opening day is announced
What colour is the smoke!!!

That's typical for just about every weekday from 3 to 5 pm. All the way from Sutherland to Leslie. That's where the bottleneck is --- at Leslie. Somehow this was not considered when the road was redesigned for the LRT. Or perhaps it was considered and then ignored.

Would like to see the "express" stops for the route 901 Airport-Eglinton Express.
Counting down the "dies" (English: days), from MMXXV. X.VIII. It seems that long.

Yup. As I said before on this forum, they should move the intersection below grade which would grade separate the LRT and only have two phase signal. Eastbound to northbound turns and southbound to eastbound turns. Eglinton through traffic can stay on the surface. The tracks will stay put.

Good point considering how early bus stop poles were replaced, I would imagine new maps after the Oct 12 services changes might include all or most of the changes and maybe an outline of the new lines similar to the TYSSE launch. Eglinton West still needs to be renamed to Cedarvale as well.

Can confirm that the notices are up because I got off at a stop with one yesterday. I used to go along that route frequently in the mornings and lane closures around the LRT portal certainly didn’t help, nor the lane setup approaching Brentcliffe. Hopefully the reduction in bus counts post opening will help somewhat.

That happens at the end of the RSD

The TTC posted a list of all the service changes coming on the 12th. Looks like some of the bus routes will now directly serve the Line 5 bus loops even though the station buildings won’t be open.

Will the 32D Eglinton West Jane & Emmett bus continue to run UNTIL Line 5 opens? Will the 32D disappear on October 12th? Will BOTH 32D and 73B run along Emmett Avenue until Line 5 opens?
Or will people will have to transfer to a 32A Eglinton bus at Jane & Eglinton or Weston & Eglinton to continue to the Eglinton West Station (I mean Cedarvale Station)?

I wonder when GO trains are scheduled to start using Mount Dennis and Kennedy?
