The Crosstown itself was supposed to open in 2020.

When it comes to doing public transportation right in the GTA, the sheer incompetence (coupled with arrogance) of all the players is ubiquitous and never ending. The utter failure on the transit file, and the constantly increasing congestion (the logical result of a car-centric culture) is sending Toronto to its doom. It’s like watching a Maple Leafs season in slow motion. https://toronto.citynews.ca/2024/10/01/toronto-finch-west-eglinton-crosstown-lrt-projects-update/

Alarming tidbit buried in the contract for repairs to the #StClairWest station streetcar track loop. Does the #TTC really believe the lifespan of streetcar tracks is only 15 years? That seems very short, especially for track that is indoors, sheltered from the winter.

It’s almost the 2 month anniversary of when #metrolinx said they would give us an update every 2 months on the #EglintonCrosstownLRT.
If Phil Verster wakes up on Nov 27 and doesn’t see the shadow of his $850K salary, does that mean we will have 6 more years of construction?

The start of this article says “Beginning Fall, 2023…” should be changed to “ Beginning right now…
How come we aren’t starting on the dedicated busway option today? $3 million for 30,000 riders seems like small change for the half a billion we are paying for the same number of drivers to rebuild the Gardiner.
