Today on Mike: Waterfront West LRT

There was a link to this report on Steve Munro's page, about route choice for the Waterfront West LRT.

That's not what I want to talk about. What I want to talk about is Exhibit 6, on the last page, a depiction of what the route under the Gardiner can look like. Look at the stop. It still uses the standard TTC streetcar stop pylon. I can't believe that. In a time where you're trying to differentiate between the terrible traditional streetcar service you run, and entice people with what is supposed to be a new approach to transit, you can't even design a new stop pylon?

VIVA did a great job with a new brand. The TTC needs to do the same.
