    well said Rossy, I could not agree with you more. The west-end (CSL, NDG, MTL-West etc...) is lacking a large piece of green space. With 10-15 years and a little investment, this golf course could be turned into an amazing place. I have played on the course a few times in the summer. Despite what the satellite images would have you believe, it is a remarkable place. There are enough defunct industrial and commercial areas nearby that it would be a shame to pave this little piece of paradise.

    hopefully we will one day we will have rear loading like they do in Europe. That way the STM can fully take advantage of these great buses.

    I actually believe Jean Talon is an excellent area to build a dense business district. It is the last major east-west street in the center of the island before the 40. Its actually not so far from downtown. It has excellent transportation access (A15, A40). It has a metro station (and the blue line could have had its terminus there instead of snowdon). The St Jerome train line also passes right by the area. This would have made an excellent second CBD. The connection with CSL is indeed a pity. CSL had a mayor for almost 30 years who was critical in developing the town, but had a stubborn opposition to connecting the two cavendishes, and connecting kildare to jean talon.

    Je pense que l'extension de la ligne blue vert le nord a plus de potentiel. Le boulevard Cavendish au nord de chemin de fer est a tres haute densite. Il y a plusieurs bloc apts approx 20 etages. En plus un terminus pourra etre construit sur le terrain du centre d'achat Cavendish. Un centre d'achat qui va etre detruit en parti bientot et donc offre un opportunite de construire avec tres haute densite.

    you have some pretty good ideas. I think the priority should be on connecting the two Cavendishes. I have not heard any talk about providing better links between lachine/mtl west. I think the cavendish mall redevelopment if done right has a great potential. It is smack in the center of town and could become a sort of down town CSL. the great sized property would have to be broken up into a grid with a mix of housing units and commerces. the former blue bonnets land seems destined to be turned into dense housing. As it stands it will be issolated in a light industrial region. To provide contiguity with other residential areas and services, kildare must be linked to jean talon. It is easy to poke fun at CSL. It is a jewish majority suburb that is perhaps the most issolated geographically on the island of montreal. One can claim it is a ghetto or that its citizens are close minded. However, most of the issolation is geographic and not intentional. The city is surrounded on three sides by train yards and by a train line on the 4th. Its not as if we are putting up walls to separate us from our neighbours. To make road connections through the yards (to VSL or CDN) would require a very long underpass (several hundred meters to a KM). This is not really a project that is feasible for CSL to do on its own. The city of Montreal needs to come on board to the project. They clearly dont seem to be interested in this at the moment. So one really shouldnt blame CSL for the issolation. If Montreal wants to cough up its share of the funds, the project will go through

    C'est vraiment dommage qu'il n'y a pas un entente entre l'amt et la STM. le Boulevard Pie IX a le potential detre un des corridors le plus importants pour le transport en commun sur l'ile de Montreal. Je pense que le problem sur le nombre des autobus est simple a regler. On peut faire la meme chose que la STM fait avec le metro à Laval. Peut etre seulement la moitié des autobus sur la nouvelle ligne BRT va continuer à Laval.

    Je pense que l'interieur est mieux que les anciennes versions. Il y a un peut plus d'espace pour passer quand tu rentres dans l'autobus.

    je ne crois pas qu'il y a un vrai chance que ca va etre construit. Mais J'avoue que cest un idee formidable!!!!!

    that seems like a lot of money for only a few thousand passengers.

    I dont know if I like this decision. One of the great things about Westmount is the views that each house on the mountain has. This could set off people blocking each others views, one after another.

    cest vraiment dommage que tu peut pas prendre un velo sur les bus ou le train. Mais si tu est vraiment en forme, tu peut aller de montreal à st jerome en velo. Cette été, jai fait mtl-st sauveur en 7 heures. Cest sure que cest pas pour tous le monde, mais cest vraiment cool

    c'est pas mal comme idée mais je sais pas si il y a assez de demande pour un lien entre le monteregie et les laurentides

    I agree However for the time being I dont think Trams will be put on lines such as Cote des neiges and Parc. These routes are not properly served with regular buses, so the stretch buses should be a nice improvement.

    oui t'as raison, la rive sud l'avait Mais pas la STM
  15. dunky
    ya my girlfriend told me she saw one today they gave a little mention of it on the stm website

    I would love to see a high speed rail developed however having the two highways are not overkill they do not exist soley to connect quebec and montreal there are many towns and cities along both sides of the river. Each side thus needs its own highway
