All that traffic has gone to Simcoe... it's been backed up from Lakeshore to Wellington every Evening ever since they shut down Spadina/Queen... and even with the re-opening it's still clogged.

I guess all those drivers finally discovered Simcoe had been extended under the tracks.

But probably haven't noticed Spadina was re-opened.

The section of the Eglinton line currently under construction, which is grade separated and will have speeds the same as our existing subway lines isn't rapid transit? Right ...

Rapid transit lines are completely grade-separated. The Eglinton Line will have extensive on-street sections, so it will not be a rapid transit line, it's as simple as that.

Oh great... Let's not have this stupid argument again. Let's just accept that everyone has their own personal definition of "rapid transit".

So if there's an early opening from Weston to Yonge, it will be a rapid-transit line, but once once they add the 6 km from Don Mills to Kennedy those who only travel from Weston to Yonge will no longer be using rapid transit. ROTFLMAO!

Every streetcar line is rapid transit - if we measure only from 50m after a stop to 50m before the next stop

Well with Queen & Spadina reopened the traffic has returned 100%. Spadina is once again a parking lot of cars every afternoon from 3:30 on. One long on ramp to the Gardiner. People honking, cyclists riding on the sidewalk, GO trains idling and idling and idling and idling in the South Bathurst Yard and someone talking handsfree on their phone.

Glad they have left my Simcoe Street! Spadina in rush hours does, however, just point out how bad and idea that Front Street extension would have been
