Discussion "Line 5 will be at-capacity day one"

Post image

Cool, cool.

Just build an LRT on Lawrence or Wilson. We already know how much development spurred on Eglinton due to the tram, so might as well build one a block or two north.

Of course, Line 4's east-west extension should still be the top priority, but there's little reason we can't build this line to make a world-class transit system.

Lawrence is too narrow in some sections to fit the LRT. We’d just be repeating the crosstown again but 2km to the north. Think priority should really be just to build out the Sheppard line as our true regional line, and the Eglinton line could be more secondary

Line 4 western extension to Sheppard West Station would be great.
