AUserofToronto Posted November 10, 2023 Report Share Posted November 10, 2023 Despite the the lengthy delay from posting CLC presentation materials, there is a November Update. https://assets.metrolinx.com/image/upload/v1699545601/Images/Metrolinx/CLC_November_2023.pdf 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erniewitt Posted November 10, 2023 Report Share Posted November 10, 2023 See, CLC minutes actually inform the public how far the project is and likely completion date. The fact no one has posted one on the Eglinton crosstown means no one has any actual idea when it will get done. I can say Finch West LRT is very much close to completion and ready for testing. P.S. I like the overhead information signs used as it is simple to decipher info on where you want to go. Not like the ones used on line 4. I wish GO, TTC and other transit agencies would adopt it with the addition of the direction the train is going after the line number (e.g. 6 West/Ouest to/Vers Humber College) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eglinton's CLC presentations happen every 2 months, and in 4 separate sections along the line. They get published on the website shortly after they occur.

You can check them out there to see the inside/outside of the station. It’s on their main YouTube channel, or in any other socials they have.

This is going to suck for people between Keele and Humber College unless the TTC can keep bus service on the 36 FINCH WEST as local to the express LINE 6. Passengers along that section are already use to the stop spacing since some stops, which the automated announcements still announce, were removed over two years ago due to the construction. Of the stops between between Keele and Westmore that were maintained during construction for the most part, only 6 will not be served by Line 6 (Romfield Lane, Jayzel Dr, Milady Rd, Kendleton Dr, Silverstone Dr/John Garland Blvd and Damascus Dr). All 6 are within a 5 minute or less walk to a Line 6 stop. 3 of them will also still be served by buses, 119B & 166 for Jayzel, and 927 as well as MiWay, BT and YRT (with fare integration) for Silverstone/John Garland and Damascus. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed T. Posted November 19, 2023 Report Share Posted November 19, 2023 Silverstone/John Garland are an odd omission, as those are the major residential collector in the area. I haven't been through there recently; where is the stop for Martin Grove? Something in between Martin Grove and Sliverstone/JG would get lots of business.
