The TTC has posted an internal notice that the operators’ sign-up for work in the period starting February 8, 2026 has been delayed because of the complexity of changes happening concurrently on the bus network.
The year 2026 is in the memo giving hope that the line may actually open soon.

When are the nearest service changes in February?
Steve: The January period is supposed to run to February 7. It is not clear if this will be pushed back a week to the Family Day weekend. Waiting for another schedule change could tempt fate as it is dangerously close to April 1.

WordPress sign-in isn’t working. Hasn’t for months, on your or Sean Marshall’s site.
It might be a pop-blocker. I am using Linux with a Brave browser, but Chrome also doesn’t ‘engage’. (Chrome is still invaluable for Google maps). I have a similar problem with TorStar’s site.
Whatever, I’m loving your stuff.

Complexity? Staff had an extra 5 years of delays to figure this out !

Given what’s going on with Line 6, the opening of Line 5 might be a “be careful what you wish for” moment for Toronto at this point.
