Any word on when this is being handed over to the ttc? What’s the latest holdup? This thread will be beside itself the day it finally happens.

What are you thinking of by handed over to the ttc? I thought that the handover had already happened and that was when training started. Currently if I understand correctly the TTC is running the revenue service demonstration which is the last stage before opening.

Line 5 operations are currently based out of the TTC Hillcrest central control facility, but the line has not been legally handed over yet to the TTC.
That will happen after RSD is completed and successful enough to declared substantial completion

Most of it, other than some stuff at the transfer stations will remain under Metrolinx ownership. TTC isn't doing maintenance, etc. - that's for Metrolinx.

What legal instrument are you referring to @TOtramz?

Never. LA county is bigger population than all
of Ontario. Toronto will
Never get there as we don’t have the ECONOMY of LA to support such massive growth.

LA County? The 2024 population is listed as about 9.8 million. The GTHA population 2024 population estimate is 8.3 million. And the Ontario mid-2024 estimate was 16.1 million. Meanwhile LA county is about 30% bigger in area.

I feel I'm missing something here.
