Kennedy’s Line 5 headhouse, replete with TTC font. Service will hopefully start on Line 5 this October. Kennedy will also connect with Line 2, Line 3 (for a bit) and GO’s Barrie Line. • • • #igerstoronto #toronto #ontario #canada #scarborough #ttc #urban_toronto #subway #metro #rt #transit #ttcinsta #toronto_photography #kennedy #metrolinx #line5 #ttcfont #headhouse #crosstownlrt (at Kennedy station) https://www.instagram.com/p/CakkpHip7am/?utm_medium=tumblr

Enbridge responds to Whitmer shutting down Line 5 dual pipelines

Enbridge responded Friday to Gov. Gretchen Whitmer's decision to shut down the Line 5 dual pipelines in the Straits of Mackinac.

The Line 5 pipeline is a vital part of the energy structure for Wisconsin, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Indiana, as well as parts of Canada.  There is no plan to replace the loss.

Democrat Governor Gretchen Whitmer made this move without consultation from the public or lawmakers, with the exception of the usual squeaky-wheel environmentalist groups who allege that Line 5 could pose a threat.  They repeatedly denied requests from Enbridge, the pipline’s operator, to discuss security measures and findings.

Enbridge has been engaged in a legal battle with Whitmer for most of 2020 at this point - this is just the latest attempt at turning Michigan into the new California.

I’m committed to walking the entire length of Line 5 prior to its opening in October. Last week I did the portion between Clairlea (Pharmacy) to Leaside (Laird). In no particular order, here are some of my captures. • • • #igerstoronto #toronto #ontario #canada #northyork #scarborough #clairlea #donmills #leaside #line5 #eglinton #torontophotography #urban_toronto #lrt #ttcinsta #metrolinx #eglintoncrosstown #sciencecentre #portal #infrastructure #transit #development (at Eglinton Avenue) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cbnh3CYJc5a/?utm_medium=tumblr

Line 5 will fundamentally change transportation options for this part of Scarborough. But it will also change the urban form along Eglinton, which has never been pretty, but often vital. The end of this mid-century strip mall is one of many changes afoot. • • • #igerstoronto #toronto #ontario #canada #scarborough #line5 #urban_toronto #ttc #torontophotography #eglintoncrosstown #metrolinx #stripmall #development #snow #decay #shuttered (at Kennedy and Eglinton) https://www.instagram.com/p/CaoH3l5t3em/?utm_medium=tumblr

A Line 1 train plying towards the soon to be re-named Eglinton West station. A Line 5 crane is also visible at what will be soon dubbed Cedarvale station. • • • #igerstoronto #toronto #ontario #canada #cedarvale #ttcinsta #eglintonweststation #ttcline1 #metrolinx #crosstownlrt #line5 #northyork #subway #transit (at Eglinton West station) https://www.instagram.com/p/CRFw7vXtSzs/?utm_medium=tumblr
