@mtlgazette It’s like The Gazette has a personal vendetta against the REM. Do you cover every metro outage as well?

I take the REM almost every day and it works great.

@Floptimus_Crime @mooneyc4 @acoyne This Poland? Their fertility rates are at an all time low. Their policies have been a failure.

@Omisjl2019 @CsizmaziaDalma @Canardiain The LRT is built and operational. Now it’s time to maximize the return on that investment.

10 minutes is a 20% reduction in travel time. That’s huge.

[Mark Monaghan @mmonagha]

@Omisjl2019 @CsizmaziaDalma @Canardiain It doesn’t. The Waterloo LRT does.

Spending over 3 billion on an LRT and having it wait at red lights so a few cars can turn left is madness.

[Mark Monaghan @mmonagha]

@Omisjl2019 @CsizmaziaDalma @Canardiain The post shows Waterloo.

[Mark Monaghan @mmonagha]

@Omisjl2019 @CsizmaziaDalma @Canardiain Waterloo.

And no, you would not have gladly paid over 19 billion for a 19 km subway in Waterloo.

[Mark Monaghan @mmonagha]

@Omisjl2019 @CsizmaziaDalma @Canardiain New subways often cost over 1 billion per km. This cost less than 50 million per km.

Tunnelling is ridiculously expensive.

[Mark Monaghan @mmonagha]

@CompletedStreet Please sir. I want some more.

[Mark Monaghan @mmonagha]

@mtlgazette 10 minute walk to Namur metro and 15 minutes to De la Savane. Seems like a great location for high density.

[Mark Monaghan @mmonagha]

@cormacDublin @humantransit How much emissions do you think digging all those tunnels is going to cause?

[Mark Monaghan @mmonagha]

@QcVmax1700 Faux. Les 26 M$ couvrent tout le projet: égouts, aqueduc, électricité, voies réservées aux bus, chaussée et trottoirs; la piste cyclable n’en représente qu’une petite fraction du coût.

@L0g1cmaster @hsrgood I take it every day. It’s great and it just got better.

[Mark Monaghan @mmonagha]

@FrancisBenoit9 @hsrgood That will change when the airport REM station opens in 2027.

[Mark Monaghan @mmonagha]

@hsrgood It’s a game changer.

[Mark Monaghan @mmonagha]

@L0g1cmaster @hsrgood Then don’t take the REM. It’s not for you. That’s fine.

Many others will love it and take it every day.

@MarcelSimoneau7 @QcVmax1700 Nous faisons tous des choix.

[Mark Monaghan @mmonagha]

@QcVmax1700 Beaucoup mieux. C'est dommage d'avoir perdu l'arbre, cependant.

[Mark Monaghan @mmonagha]

@RamboPops2 @mtlgazette Yes
