Great video! It's annoying that the signage used isn't consistent with the rest of the TTC network, especially given that it's supposed to be seamlessly integrated.

Wow! That’s awesome 😎 thx for sharing Jamie! Can’t wait to ride the Eglinton Crosstown whenever it’s open for service.

Great video! I love when you mention the state of the bike lanes nearby; I'm looking forward to them possibly more than the actual transit line itself!
@transitthinker
@transitthinker 2 года назад
Yes the bike lanes will really improve Eglinton, thanks for watching!

@@transitthinker having ridden a bike along the westbound side, I don't think there will be actual bike lanes the whole way, only for little (very short) sections...

Nice one, though it's fitting that this was just uploaded three days after the line is delayed yet again and I even made my own "thoughts" video on it.

Glad to hear it! I'll probably do another Mississauga update in a few months but sounds like tracks have already been installed!

I hope they do a better job then Toronto. It's hard to find any information about the design they will do. I once saw a "concept" of the Hwy 10 line going behind the building along hwy 10 at eglinton over the creek/storm drain then going over the 403 on its own bridge. I don't know where I saw that but finding any information on what they planing is a mystery to me.

In the future, I think you can dampen the natural noise so that your descriptions from your voice can be better heard. The care. :)

In the southbound lanes of Yonge Street on the south side of Eglinton Avenue, there is a deep open pit that has some unfinished walls. Looking to the east within the pit, one can see the severed pedestrian tunnel that used to connect Eglinton station to a building on the east side of Yonge. Looking at the north side of the pit, one sees a cavern under the wooden decking along Eglinton. Crosslinx started digging the pit in early 2022. Hopefully, Crosslinx won't need to dig a matching pit on the east side of Yonge. I don't know why this pit is needed. In the middle of Yonge on the north side of Eglinton, Metrolinx is building what I believe is a facility for ventilation which contain concrete components that rise a few feet above street level. There seems to be a below-street level passage connecting this facility to whatever is under the wooden decking under Eglinton.

Hmm yeah I've seen that pit but not sure what it's for, could be utility relocation work that'd just a guess
@gedias1
@gedias1 2 года назад
I can understand the tunnel issues, and what is happening at Yonge, but there shouldn't be an excuse as to why outside construction on the station buildings are not ready for the original September target, unless there is a labour shortage.

It is not just the delay in building the bike lanes, but the whole line.

Great vid. But why aren't they doing LRT service between Leslie and Ionside
@transitthinker
@transitthinker 2 года назад
Thanks! I'm not too sure what you mean but testing has started on the Leslie-Ionview section. Opening that section without the rest of the line probably wouldn't be very beneficial

Wish they would open the part of the line that is completed.

I would be surprised if this thing is actually open in 2023 , I'm projecting 2024 spring.
@transitthinker

Hopefully it opens in 2023 but 2024 could also be possible!

It's a bunch of bullcrap for this line to be delayed for the 3rd time, I think it's that the people that are working on this line must be slacking off and doing a lazy job, like look at Eglinton and Yonge for an example, the only station that is 67% completed, and I think that's the only station across this line is what's holding up delays, because work has started in 2019 and it's now on with the structural steel of the entrance building which is a very positive thing showing because this station is near in competition, but what worries me the most is the roads and the large open holes that need to be worked on, and i don't think they would ever get it done by the end of this year. Leaside by the way used to have a big hole in the road but I think they are now filling it up and restoring the roads now so that's a good thing. Honestly these workers need to get off their horses and do the job done instead of being lazy. Like I mean, it gets on my nerves a lot. I wouldn't be surprised if the Finch west was Completed first before Eglinton.

Crosslinx cant hide behind the pandemic this time. We want a subway line
@davesaunders7080
@davesaunders7080 2 года назад
It's more than lazy. I believe all the engineers and contractors who used to work on the big subway projects retired and now we have to learn from the beginning again. Compare our construction progress to European projects who have the expertise and you will see this in action.

Please consider sound-level of video-sound-track & your sound-level of your voice-track (ie. your voice-track is not loud enough; respectively vice versa, video-sound-track too loud). Kind regards
@transitthinker
@transitthinker 2 года назад
Thanks, in my other videos the background sound is removed when I'm speaking but completely forgot to do it this time. There isn't any way to fix it without deleting and re-uploading but apolize for the sound issues!

i thought they would’ve put a line five sticker on the station signage’s
@transitthinker
@transitthinker 2 года назад
The signage on Line 5 is really weird but this article goes into why it's not the same as the TTC’S blog.metrolinx.com/2021/06/17/we-explain-why-eglinton-crosstown-wayfinding-is-a-bit-different-from-other-toronto-transit-routes/

The opening has to be on a weekend
@transitthinker
@transitthinker 2 года назад
The last planned date was a sunday so yeah chances are it will open on a weekend. It also needs to open on one of the TTC service change days
@franki3Ru550
@franki3Ru550 2 года назад
Honestly they don't want the line to open this year because they want there wallet "Jumbo" size, they don't want a skinny wallet.
@transitthinker
@transitthinker 2 года назад
I think it would be better to open it sooner because they wouldn't pay more construction costs

This has been delayed again with no respite in sight. Businesses are severely suffering because of this crap. No accountability has been taken by Metrolinx and the cost has ballooned again. Smh
@transitthinker
@transitthinker Год назад
There definitely needs to be more transparency about why the line keeps getting delayed, hopefully other projects don't have as many issues
