Rush hours now seem to start earlier and end later. Transit relief lines are needed. Subways need to be extended in all directions into the 905. That include Peel, Durham, and North to Markham.
Are you convinced that new revenues are required? YesNoNot Sure After you have completed the survey [ I didn't see SELECT subways ] the conclusion asks are you willing to … (0 comments)

transit: Are they Teasing West Toronto with LRT
- 02/13/09 02:48 AM
