Then there is Ford's baby subway, the Ontario Line. It will be:
- Incompatible with all other lines the #TTC operates (can't: build junctions later for interlining, can't share rolling stock)
- Smaller than Subways (Ford's logic: narrower tunnels means more distance for the same budget and more is better, never mind projected usage being higher than capacity!)
Billions wasted to satisfy our own Trump.

Watching this video makes me lament for #Toronto and #Ontario and the damage done to it by Rob and Doug Ford.
As originally designed the Eglinton LRT would have spread throughout Scarborough and Etobicoke.
Instead Ford is wasting $3.5bn to bury the west end of the line, money that could've been used to build dozens of kilometres of on-street dedicated LRT lanes.

More than 120,000 people work at the Texas Medical Center, with many commuting from Fort Bend County. The Houston-Galveston Area Council is studying ways to help them get there faster through new public transportation options.
