I may just be being sarcastic.
A transit agency should have it right Day One. Its a disgrace.

It is recommended that the TTC Board and Management:1. Do their job.

" in charge ".

The upshot is that those in charge had no idea what their job was and they should be relieved of their jobs.

I will say it again: No new transit, that cannot be shown in advance to get an average speed less than 30km, should get one cent of public money. We cant keep building crappy transit.

I hate the NYT use of "upending" .
December 9, 2025 at 5:25 PM
You mean the report written by the direct people who would financially benefit from it.
December 9, 2025 at 5:20 PM
20KM is still a joke.
December 8, 2025 at 7:30 PM
This does little for most users.

As always The Local getting detailed local voices. Have to admit the LRT looks like a huge waste of money that could have gone to Libraries, Community Centres and trails. There would have been a billion left over for a dedicated bus lane which is faster.

Lets not forget term limits too. Same councillors making poor choices.

Will be interesting when Doug Fords line turns out to be the best new line.An improved bus lane would have been better and left a few billion to be invested in libraries, community centres, and trails in this deserving part of town. They got a monorail instead.

Well put.
December 7, 2025 at 4:41 AM
My point is why then does ANY transit get built that goes at a piss poor 13KM hour? Its like transit planners have never talked to a transit user. Speed is important. Imagine that. : )
December 6, 2025 at 5:53 PM
It seems hard to believe but speed is probably the number 1 thing users want.

I dont agree with everything you write. But as I have said before you write in good faith. A lot of left and right writers dont. I have always felt that reading opinions that you may not agree with is healthy and sometimes forces you to admit your team may be wrong.

A cage match!

He doesnt need to. Trade winds are blowing against trump. Everybody knows that.

Or speeds; The 13KPH line.

Another point is that LRT lines have become the "budget" version of transit and we need political courage to say build them better, or build something higher order. Personally I find light rail in Toronto moves really slowly regardless of intersections.
December 5, 2025 at 2:07 PM
We just spent a lot of money for transit on Finch that is really really slow.On a road that car drivers consider pretty fast. Apparently now more than twice as fast as LRT.
