torontonians will see this and still loudly assert that bmo field is the pinnacle of sporting venue design, and u are supposed to pretend that they are actual sentient human beings

The city and TTC insisted on operating the Eglinton Crosstown and are doing a bad job of it. Its a bit sad because its going to kill the chance of the TTC operating any more new lines, which while they are poor at today, could be a really valuable thing.

Instead of doing the Eglinton East line what if we extended the Crosstown with crossing gates along the Gatineau hydro corridor? You'd connect - UTSC and Pan Am Two Major SHN Hospitals Density around Lawrence East formerly served by L3 Morningside Park And it would be fast.

A ᴑ shaped tunnel boring machine deployed on the Shanghai Metro Line 12 west extension in Late May 2026. This machine creates a sideways θ tunnel for Line 12 trains to run under the elevated Line 9 Dongjing Station.

Beneath the glow of work lights, teams carry out overnight maintenance to keep the railway running safely and smoothly. This is the industrial beauty of the night — and the dedication behind every journey.

Very excited to read this

It's remarkable that if you live in Toronto it seems that basically no level of government is doing even 2% what they should be to fix the housing crisis. Someone mentioned to me the airport being a big topic and it is insane that it's such a big topic relative to housing.

I mean not really?

It will never not be funny to me that Texas is the Renewable Energy Capital of America

Incredibly generous gift. I highly recommend you take this chance to donate. I just did. @torontolibrary is one of the best library systems in the world. It was first formed by absorbing the library of the Toronto Mechanics' Institute in 1884 (the mechanics institute that Sandford Fleming inventor of timezones worked at). In 1922 it opened one of the first dedicated children's library in the world. Today it is one of the largest, most used, and most accessible systems anywhere. It has a similar number of locations to the New York public library. By most measures it has more books in circulation than any other comparable system. 80% of the city uses it. It is also home to some truly glorious pieces of library architecture (reference library, North York). It is clean, well run, fast, efficient, free and operates basically everywhere that it could be useful. One of the things Toronto should be very proud of.

TTC operations have experientially felt worse basically every year for the past half decade.

Getting hired to fix transit agencies’ GTFS feeds would be a dream job that I could really dig into It’s not that hard, it just requires an eye for details

Open for 6 months and the GTFS is still borked. Sigh.
