      If there's a federal election before then, and proper corruption charges are levied against Trudeau and SNC-Lavalin, plus the mega fines that Crosslinx will incur for the incredible delays (and bless Metrolinx, IO and the Government for not actually telling the public that the consortium is going to be faced with huge financial penalties for the delay), then all you need to do is vote early, vote often, vote wisely, and for the love of everything holy, don't vote Liberal, and keep the faith that Metrolinx is doing the best they can as they're only the owner and project manager, not the builder, designer, maintainer or operator.

    I live along the corridor and wish I could be more enthusiastic about it. This line is more about moving people differently than getting people out of their cars and onto transit. For example, is the supposed “interchange” at Cooksville just a stop across the street from the station? In winter, I’d prefer just to drive to the GO station’s parking garage.

    • @Edwards-Videos
      @Edwards-Videos 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      It would have been more expensive, but absolutely, below grade interchanges should have been constructed at Dundas Street, Cooksville GO station and Square One where people can transfer seamlessly at the bus terminal there. The proposed loop through the high density area west of Square One should also be underground. Otherwise, this is just a glorified streetcar.

      It's not a subway or train. Yes all intersections will have signals, very similar to streetcars, tho at parts it will go by the side of the roadway instead of middle. The transit company will call them "smart" signals, which is a fancy way of saying for certain rush hour periods, signal periods may vary. See Eglinton LRT as it's already set up (tho not live yet).

    Brampton is actually shooting themselves so badly in the foot by opposing this line going directly downtown. It’s the most obvious place to stop it with the GO station that’s RIGHT THERE. “Ruining the look of downtown Brampton” is a horrible excuse, especially when you look at how dead the retail scene is with the little foot traffic that’s currently there. Horribly shortsighted for that city.

      Mississauga's growth was mainly due to its good geographical location in the west end of a large metro area right next to the core city. And Hazel's time in office coincided with a time when it was very easy to be seen as a great mayor; and in a suburban city with few of the typical big city problems like homelessness and crime.

      She has plenty of stuff named after her already. And why not use the normal convention for naming things after mayors like like civic squares (i.e: Mel Lastman Square / Nathan Phillips Square) instead of "Celebration Square", rather than a transit line following a single street (obvious name) that won't even run solely within Mississauga and isn't obvious?

      Plus turning vehicles, Plus bikes, plus pedestrians.
      It’s the same reason they built the walkway and bikeway on Highway 7 down the middle of the road where it crosses the 400.
      Another example is Danforth at the DVP where a high volume of cars turn onto a highway ramp, crossing a high volume cycle track. To make it safer required new lights, new phases, new markings… etc.

      @@eurosoe It makes no difference to the number of phases. You need dedicated left signals for turns across the tracks either way. The real difference is that with a median LRT you can allow right turns without a signal.

    This is a safety concern because the line is on the same level as the road, potentially leading to accidents with cars and other vehicles. Also, how are the cars supposed to make left turns now if the LRT is cutting through the middle of the road?
    This should've been elevated or an underground metro should've been built. C'mon metrolinx, this is common sense. At road level LRT would only work in low density cities not Hurontario St. which is bustling with people, cars and trucks.

    This is a lazy attempt at bolstering transit. It should have been a subway to truly provide people with a benefit to leave the car behind. And a needed connection along Dundas to Kipling Station.
    If you need help planning transit projects. My rates are fair.

    Lol at the cafe testimonial at the end. I live here and every time i pass by, the commercial plazas are engulfed in pilons, blocked lanes, caution tape, or driveways blocked. And i really feel sorry for the small businesses along the route. Yes construction workers struggle to keep access open, but as a driver going by, you would never know. Worth it in the long term or not, it decimated the businesses in the area that are not Walmart or Lablaws names.

      7,5 during peak time particularly considering LRT aren’t known to be fast it’s bad. Will be even worst during off peak. And it’s not even considering almost all transits get delays. If we want peoples to use transit and drop their cars we need to so much better than that!

      ​​​@@samuelo5052Toronto Subway might have many issues people can complain about, especially for not being larger for a city of thi size, but it does have very good frequency, runs often every 3-4 mins for much of the day. Rush hour at times they push it as much as 1-3 mins on average. I think Toronto Subway is possibly the highest subway frequency in USA/Canada cities only NYC with a much larger system rivals that frequency. In comparison while Chicago has a large L Subway system that is much larger then Toronto Subway, yet frequency was often 7-10 mins through out most of the day from my experince there. Montreal also has a great subway system that can rival Toronto, however from my experience on multiple trips the frequency is still not as fast as Toronto is.
      Mississauga not even being in the city of Toronto, being a suburb with lots of sprawl in many parts of Mississauga, getting a LRT with 7.5 mins frequency is pretty good I think. 4:19
