Posted by David Fairthorne on Thu Sep 13 23:38:08 2007, in response to My Trip to Toronto, posted by MainR3664 on Mon Sep 3 10:37:37 2007. from a non-railfan commuter's postion, probably perfect.I agree, except for the incomplete Sheppard subway, now considered by some to have been ill-conceived. York Region (north of Toronto, population one million and growing fast) plans to widen Yonge Street and build dedicated bus lanes along the middle. But a group of York Region politicians called the "Yonge Subway North Committee" wants instead to extend the Yonge subway northwards from the busy Finch subway station into York Region. Yonge Street is continuously built-up for many miles to the north, and is served by York Region express buses. The Committee argues that, rather than going first to dedicated bus lanes it would be better to extend the subway. See here. I know this isn't Bus Chat In addition to the regular bus services, TTC now has a good many express bus routes. Also in the surrounding areas there are both local and express services. And there are GO bus services that run off-peak when GO trains are not running. |
