So which is it? The NYC hard plastic seats, or the C14 seats?
They surely can. Hard plastic can stick to your skin, or be slippery on your clothing.

Somewhere in between the 2, but probably closer to NYC.

I can’t believe that anyone who uses King regularly but didn’t have the map would hear “Melinda Exit” and think “that’s obviously the one through Commerce Court” rather than the exit-only to the aforementioned street

Technically the exit-only stair comes out on Yonge.

I’m not on it every day, but on Thursday, for the second time, I saw a guy step from the platform to the space between two subway cars on Line 2.

Had the opportunity to try those seats again tonight (pressing down with my fingertips), I stand by what I said: they felt exactly as if you put a few-mm-thick layer of fabric over a rock. No significant squishiness or cushion effect whatsoever.

So you agree that it gives a few mm of cushion then.

Which is negligible and nowhere near that offered by the vinyl seats or the Warsaw/Stockholm seats.

A report to next week's TTC meeting updates us on the installation of 5G in the tunnels/stations.
From the above?

Was the "operational" issue between Finch and Davisville this morning due to late clearing of overnight work? What a disaster.

TTC June Service changes are out.
While a lot of it is the usual seasonal decreases (and the odd increase); and some is post-construction reinstatement (511, and 509)
There are a notable number of terrible service decreases. Services that already have bad service like Mortimer 62 will drop in headway down to 30m in mid-day.
That's a sure way to kill ridership . It makes no sense at all.
Gerrard 135 is another to see cuts, with even more bloat added to its 'recovery' time.

TTC restoring service on 509, 510 and 511 streetcars this Sunday
June 19, 2025
As of Sun., June 22, regular streetcar service on the 509 Harbourfront, 510 Spadina, and 511 Bathurst streetcars resumes, following infrastructure work at the intersection of Bathurst St., Lake Shore Blvd. W., and Fleet St.
In February, the TTC and the City of Toronto began replacing aging watermains and streetcar tracks at the intersection. The work included replacing the curved streetcar tracks at Bathurst St/Eireann Quay and Queens Quay and on Bathurst St. from Front St. to King St. W., along with overhead wiring upgrades. Over the next few weeks, the TTC will continue to finalize work on newly installed switches along the intersection.
The 509 Harbourfront and 511 Bathurst replacement bus service will no longer run.
In addition, service will be increased on the 509 Harbourfront Mon. to Fri. between 4 p.m. to 10 p.m., Sat. from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. and Sun. between 12 p.m. to 4 p.m. to meet additional demand during the summer months.
Seasonal service adjustments
Starting Mon., June 23, seasonal service will begin on several TTC routes.
The 200 Toronto Zoo will operate every 20 minutes between Rouge Hill GO Station and the Toronto Zoo.
The 201 Bluffer’s Park will operate every 23 minutes between Kennedy Station and Bluffer’s Park.
Seasonal service will also resume on the 203 High Park. Buses will operate every 20 minutes between High Park Station and High Park, on weekends and holidays only.
Service on the 92 Woodbine South will be increased in the evenings Mon. - Fri. to accommodate customers heading to Woodbine Beach.
The 508 Lake Shore route will be suspended until Tues., Sept. 2, due to reduced summer demand.
Full details of the service adjustments are available at https://www.ttc.ca/riding-the-ttc/Updates/TTC-service-adjustments. Customers are also encouraged to follow @TTCNotices on X or sign up for eAlerts.

Absolute disaster on Adelaide again today. Streetcar didn't move at all for 10 minutes as delivery vehicles and construction vehicles clogged up everything.
I haven't seen traffic wardens at all at PM rush hour today or yesterday, and with King/Church closed this is when they are most desperately needed.
