Of course we get this banger after @paulisci.bsky.social's Headline of the Year contest

Two years ago, I wrote for The Star about how the city's lack of vision for New Year's Eve contributed to dangerous conditions for pedestrians and transit riders. Once again, festivities hinge on Union Station handling tens of thousands of people at once. (1/4) www.thestar.com/opinion/cont...

Toronto Municipal Code § 719-2A "Every owner or occupant of any building must, within 12 hours after any fall of snow, rain or hail has ceased, clear away and completely remove snow and ice from any sidewalk in front of, alongside, or at the rear of, the building."

A new sneaky GO Transit policy I just noticed. The weekend pass used to be either 24 hours or the end of the weekend, whichever came first. I used to be able to take trips on both Sat evening and Sun morning on one pass. Now it is only until the end of the current day :(

The second half of this is written so proudly.

Who needs a village when you can have parking lots?

The Carribean Christmas Village at Fairbank Station. Very happy to see the plaza now in use for community events.

It's incredible how much space we allocate in the densest part of Toronto to those who don't know what a subway is.

Call me crazy, but I really don't think it has to take multiple years.

Double it in spite

This CP24 story has been popping up every half hour all day. It's four people and a contracted driver each time

Based on @ttcalerts.bsky.social, this timeline shows duration of unplanned closures or delays on Line 6. Although, I wonder if this would be a higher rate/distance or /ridership as compared to Lines 1 or 2, only one problem-free day in a week on a 10 km line erodes trust for those that depend on it.

Truly the tan suit of our time

Oopsy

The Finch light rail has officially been beaten by a runner www.instagram.com/reel/DSLJLx-...

If its any consolation, there were no TTC alerts about Line 6 today on the first weekday in service. The bar is at "it didn't immediately explode".

No live data yet for Line 6 so uh...

It all makes sense now

Yeah no I love that the TTC announced there would be no 506 replacement bus service, then secretly had it anyway for a month, then suddenly removed it. Commuting isn't fun without the guessing

Not a chance in hell the CBC should pursue participation any further. www.bbc.com/news/live/ce...

According to the December 10th agenda, the TTC is set to allow company adtrackmedia to install in-tunnel advertising. This would similar to those installed on the Vancouver Skytrain in 2022 where a series of vertical LED panels display ads to be visible at train speeds.

be happy it's coming, don't be bothered by the map be happy it's coming, don't be bothered by the map be happy it's coming, don't be bothered by the map be happy it's coming, don't be bothered by the map be happy it's

Popped over to KW to cleanse after seeing the Line 6 schedule

Spotted this in Vienna, hell yeah

On the bright side, Toronto's BYD buses already did that themselves

Pretty cool No new station smell as that has probably wafted away years ago, but looks decent.

Mr. Goudas is doing more for world peace than Donald Trump

The neighbourhood retail report as amended CARRIES 23-2. Toronto Council votes to permit corner stores in all Old Toronto & East York wards, and expands permission for retail on some (but not all) major streets city-wide.

Please rise if you are able and remove your caps for the new flag of the City of Toronto

As much as this compromise is good given the context, I wish objectively beneficial policy didn't have to be piecemealed into 25 different sets of rules.

#RapidTO streetcar priority lanes on Bathurst Street are painted between Lake Shore and Fort York. Looking forward to the rest of the work being completed all the way to Bloor soon! #Toronto

Get Zohraned!

If it's any consolation, we can ditch baseball for skiing, curling, and bobsleigh in four months time

Noo, don't make me go back to watching the Leafs

Part of my summer work with the City was going to farmers markets and libraries with a tent and doing public consultations on this. Neighbourhoods with existing cornerstores were overwhelmingly supportive. Other neighbourhoods loved the idea of walking 5 minutes to get milk instead of driving.

The difference in the time it takes a streetcar in Amsterdam vs. Toronto to clear an intersection after servicing a nearside stop.

A bunch of Jays fans will learn we have a night network

Just start signing fans in the stands to pinch run

If the Rogers Centre had a parking lot that covered the same surface area as the Dodgers' parking lot, it would stretch from Queen Street on one end to the Lake Ontario waterfront on the other

This is one of the three pictures United uses to advertise Toronto

LETS GOOOOOO

George Springer statue ASAP idc where

Out to pasture

My uncle vowed a long time ago to never watch baseball again because it's so boring. He decided to restart doing so for ALCS Game 1 and 2 since the Jays put up so much offence and made it exciting against the Yankees. Why must he be proven right?
