I really wish the TTC would put more effort into designing the actual station platforms instead of the concourse halls. I get that its important to give a good first impression, but I think it makes far more sense to give interesting looking stations that everyone riding the train can see, over a nice looking concourse hall that only the people using that station can see.
Can anybody explain all the bare walls on the new stations' track levels? Why spend all that money on these beautifully designed stations, only to have bare concrete that will be water stained and grimy in a few years?
Honestly I'm not really digging this stations design. All the concrete on noth the platform walls and the various pillars as well as the lack of daylight or proper lighting at all throughout the station makes the place feel really depressing. It could really use some more lighting and perhaps some reflective panels on the walls and pillars. I think one station that does that stuff really well is Trianglen Station in Copenhagen and that certainly looks like a nicer place to board a train.
@@RMTransit the shapes of the pillars are definitely neat but the relatively large number of them in the small space makes the entire space feel cramped and is certain to make anyone whose claustrophobic even more uncomfortable than they already would be.
This station is built in 2017 and should include PSD, if not, it should include the space of PSDs. But they didn't include anything. To install PSD, they have to reinforce the platform again. What a mess.
@@RMTransit Nice video though. Hope they include the PSD spaces. If they did, it should not take that long to install PSD. The construction should include PSD before open the extension. So that it won't take time testing doors.
The station building is awesome!
Reece Martin it fits really well with its environnement.
Highlighting the construction at Bramalea GO would be a good video idea 😁.

I would love to see more trees on the commons next to the station, at least on the sides.
Would love to see a Commercial-Broadway (Vancouver) Station Focus, as it is a very busy station with many connections and 5 platforms!

DrDewott it looks very industrial these new stations

@@RMTransit If they include the space of PSD, we should be able to see a gap covered with metal on the top of the platform edge.
@@RMTransit Or, it is hidden behind the yellow strips.
