Metrolinx making ‘relentless progress’ on Eglinton LRT but still no opening date

https://globalnews.ca/news/10585293/metrolinx-eglinton-crosstown-lrt-update-verster/

All we know is that the Eglinton LRT will not open for another three months, every day that Metrolinx does not give a defined opening date.

No real testing= no opening date. Phil Verster is just blowing hot air. He would do better telling us when Finch is opening.

Between line 3 just closing abruptly due to lack of maintenance, the Ontario Science Center closing abruptly due to lack of maintenance, Amsterdam Bridge along the waterfront closing due to lack of maintenance. I would not be supprised if Humber Bay Pedestrian Bridge is the next to go, its not been maintained in ages and looks close to end of life.

I think i see a pattern forming in Ontario in general. Ellington won't open anytime soon but most stations already look like they are lacking some maintenance as well.

Line 2 subway cars nearing their 30 years end of life really really soon...

Phil Verster ruined Scotrail, then Metrolinx was like "that's the guy we want"
