So now, the level of crowding on the subway’s Line 1 — especially at Yonge-Bloor station, and also often at St. George station — has reached house-on-fire status. Hell, just installing elevators at Dupont subway station will have been a three-year construction project if it finishes on time later this year. So yes, for the love of whatever it is you love, build the Relief Line and build it as soon as possible. But it can certainly get more vehicles on the road faster than it can tunnel a new subway line under it. We need the subway line, but we can’t wait for it.
