r/TTC

Have crossed through the walkway to the LRT how many times now and it's the first I've seen the plaque.

(Edit: Cedarvale)

Removing bike lanes alone will make TTC buses far less reliable. Especially when Line 2 shuts down and shuttle buses are deployed.

Already made a post on that so won't explain again here.

Now he hasn’t announced he's removing bus lanes (yet).

But when the Bathurst/Dufferin RapidTO was put in, Prabmeet Sarkaria liked IntegrityTO's post that claimed “the lanes are a disaster for traffic.”

He since removed the like, but this is a clue they could be coming after bus lanes next.

Ford added more bike lanes to the chopping block a few months after the original announcement.

It's very safe to assume he will try to destroy more if there's no resistance.

----------

So please show up to show Ford he cannot control Toronto's roads without a fight.

We expect the demolition crew to arrive on this day.

Tom Riley Park parking lot (7 min walk from Islington TTC).

Oct 13, 5pm-late (you can stay for as long or as little as you like)

Bring layers, food, and water. The protest may last all night.

Ford is more likely to reverse course if cyclists, transit riders, and pedestrians all come out to oppose him.

This is where it starts. And this is where we make it end.

For real this time. I was on my way to Canadian Tire to buy new slippers and thought I’d take this picture.

A further nod to the businesses who want the street parking back, the black car at the front of the right lane is parked.

The cars on the right have to merge in the streetcar lane, then go back in the right lane to turn right.

This made things slower for everyone, took us 20 minutes just to travel 2.5km.

If the city caves in to the businesses, expect the streetcars to get even slower.

Vote for transit friendly candidates this election!

Demanding the city to bring back street parking will do nothing but alienate a huge chunk of your potential buyers.

Instead, they should do marketing campaigns targeting these riders, and encourage them to shop local on the way home.

As a transit rider, I am more than happy to support small businesses. I likely just don’t know about them!

But an effective campaign would make me interested to check them out on my way home.

With the news release, instead the businesses communicated “we want your commute to be less reliable” as the changes made the streetcar much better.

There are 30K potential customers up for grabs. Don’t alienate them. Reach out to them instead and that’s how you can make more money

Noticed the last few weeks that almost all the false ceilings have been removed at bloor. On the platforms and in the ticket halls

For some laughs, I decided to make a JOKE extension and two joke lines. The JOKE extension is Line 4 to Ottawa, and the JOKE line is Line 9 Bessarion to Buffalo. I also added another joke line called the Canada Line that goes to Georgina in the York Region. You can see it on the second image on the lower left. These funny things were inspired by u/Savings-Motor-7397’s 2070 fantasy map (third image) and the Ontario Line 2, (4th image), made by @OntarioLine2 on Facebook. I highly advise you to read this body text because it is a JOKE post. Please do NOT take anything in this post seriously, i want to have a good laugh with you guys! Hope you like this funny lil thingy
