After being in Munich for a week, I'm now a firm believer that regional rail is the next truly transformative transport mode for cities, even more so than the highway or metro: 1/

@DeanTester The media is over-focused on NIMBYs in transit expansion too. E.G... Forget that the Ontario Line will move 388,000 people daily and through North America's 4th largest city. Yet, give most bandwidth to a collection of homeowners along parts of the line who don't want the change.

TIL downtown Muskegon was entirely demolished for an indoor mall that was demolished itself by 2001. Pain.

"It’s a no-brainer. This is a corridor that Metrolinx needs to serve" Fantastic article about the need for better transit options to connect Waterloo and Hamilton. Key quotes from @Sean_YYZ & @bmdoucet (Paywall) therecord.com/news/waterloo-…
The people losing their minds over having no parking at this stadium is absolutely hilarious.

Progress on the Davenport Diamond on @GOtransitBR is really shifting into high gear. Images from 9am, 10am, 11am & 1pm. The speed with which we're able to build this kind of infrastructure should be instructive for all sorts of transit projects across the City.

The responses to this are bleak. It’s the single most transit-accessible location in the entire world and nobody can think about anything other than where they’ll park

I'm here in Montreal for the first day of a new integrated regional transit fare scheme, and it's easily the most underrated transportation initiative in all of North America: 1/

Extremely exciting to see some major procurement progress for the @OntarioLine. This project, the first new downtown #Toronto subway in 60 years, will transform mobility in Canada’s largest city.

From the report, it mentions Metrolinx and the Province are working on a new IBC on regional fare structures. Interested to see where this leads.
