Combined with TTC operational improvements, cumulative time savings to date are 10 minutes (Line 5) and 20 minutes (Line 6) per round trip. Work is ongoing to expand the TSP measures to include rotational signal phasing and full signal retiming to create progressions that support a continuous green wave. This is anticipated for completion by September 2026.

Building on the momentum from the recent efforts to improve transit travel times on the Line 5 and Line 6 corridors, the combined Transportation Services and TTC team will advance a significant expansion of Enhanced Transit Signal Priority throughout 2026 through a combination of new installations and upgrades to existing locations. The program will focus on high ridership bus and streetcar routes, with emphasis on routes that are expected to play a critical role during FIFA World Cup 2026, including both conventional and Enhanced TSP upgrades and additions to the 509 Harbourfront, 504 King, 63/63B Ossington south of Bloor Street, 7 Bathurst Street, 512 St. Clair Avenue, 505 Dundas, and the continued buildout of the 510 Spadina Avenue corridor. Collectively, these planned installations and upgrades represent nearly 50 percent more than the number of signalized intersections equipped or upgraded with TSP in any previous year, reflecting the City's commitment to accelerating delivery through additional temporary consulting resources and strengthened interagency coordination. The following table provides a summary of the TSP implementations planned for 2026 (72 New Locations, for a total of 508).

Bus route names that are receiving upgrades or have existing Transit Signal Priority, including: Dufferin Jane Express Wilson Scarborough Kipling South Parliament Don Mills Sherbourne Victoria Park Coxwell Main Keele Finch

Fantastic to see the City's Congestion Management Plan call for Enhanced TSP on more corridors!

That's point #1 of the FastTrackTO 10-Point Plan in motion! ✅

It's an exciting start...but we're not done. Let's keep up the momentum #TTCriders!

The timing is excellent, as thousands of commuters can now avoid spiking gas prices and ride in style

Absolutely Patrick!
Single person car use is literally burning the planets precious resources, wasting energy, and polluting it too. (Even electric vehicles are not ideal). Here’s a simple solution: huge investments in #publictransit. Provides « growth » and jobs and services. Win/win. #TransitSky

Extremely impressive switch from polluting #cars to #publictransit in #NYC
#TransitSky

I’m glad to see that there is pressure to right size the project, but advocates need to make sure that happens

They are still adding additional lanes
They will try to pull funding to the interchanges
They will likely Delay the light rail

It is extra unfortunate that Oregon Democrats have failed to fund transit & cut investment in bicycling/rail as a fuel crisis begins

There are transportation alternatives Oregon should have invested in, but they took every opportunity to support cars above all

I’m disappointed that we continue to have representatives with these priorities, but I think there is something to be said for the general public’s disinterest around transit funding

Testimony submitted was approximately ~150 pieces, which is not a lot given the scope of the bill
#orleg #transitsky

There is still time to submit testimony to the Oregon legislature and call your representatives

Don’t let them kneecap our rail funding and direct bike registration fee to supporting highways

#orleg #carcentric #amtrak #transitsky #urbanism

Transportation advocate have warned legislators that highway expansion funding is unsustainable and now the that bill is coming due they’re cutting bicycle and train funding to make up for part of it

Please write into your legislators

#orleg #transitfunding #carcentric #bicycling #transitsky

Yeah I agree with @stephenkb.bsky.social here. #WashingtonDC #Metro stations some of my favourites in world. #TransitSky

This isn’t Corvallis specific but if you want to help secure funding for transit please write in

In context of how much highway expansions cost, 3 million is tiny

Here is a little side project I recently put together to shed some light on the BRT (Bus Rapid Transit) network in Campinas, Brazil. Like many other cities across South America, Campinas eventually caught on to the utterly viral BRT frenzy! Other modes of transportation (such as trolleybuses and light rail) had been proposed earlier to ease road congestion and improve mobility across a metropolitan area home to more than 3.5 million inhabitants, but the idea of implementing a BRT system ultimately won out in 2011. However, it took a little over a decade before the BRT network began to be gradually brought into service, starting with the launch of BRT20 on Corredor Campo Grande in 2022. Corredor Ouro Verde followed in 2023 with the opening of BRT10.  Corredor Perimetral opened last in 2024, completing the originally planned network. As shown on the map, the system consists of seven lines, distributed across three major corridors totaling almost 37km: Campo Grande, Ouro Verde and Perimetral. When heading towards the city center, some lines extend beyond their dedicated eastern terminal (Mercado or Central) to run along what is locally known as Corredor Central - a ring-like collection of five one-way avenues looping through the city center, where regular traffic and urban transit are physically segregated.  After completing their loop - serving both Terminal Mercado and Terminal Central along the way - these lines rejoin their respective corridors to continue their outbound journey. Lines operating on the Ouro Verde and Perimetral corridors stop at all stations up to one of three main terminals - BRT12 to Santa Lúcia, BRT10 to Ouro Verde and BRT11 to Vila Nova. Lines running along Corredor Campo Grande also serve either of two major terminals: Satélite Íris and Campo Grande. Additionally, they are further divided into all-stops ("parador") for BRT20 and BRT25 or semi-express ("semi-espresso") services for BRT21 and BRT26.
