"Yes; I felt that they should have included a Cherry Street Station (to connect with a future Waterfront LRT) too, but their explanation is that there would not be enough space between the East Harbour and Corktown Stations for the trains to get up to speed if there were a Cherry Street Station - I am on the fence over this, but an East Harbour (Union Station East) connection seems to be a reasonable alternative

"I am not familiar with the bus routes in the area, but with ECLRT stops at an average of 790 metres apart, I raised the issue of the long distances between stops along the Eglinton Crosstown LRT with a Metrolinx representative and was told that they were aware of the issue and would be continuing bus service along some portions of the LRT route - My question would be; what portions of the route will not be getting bus service and how are those prospective riders expected to endure the long walks between the stops and their destinations or places of origin?"
