Despite objections from residents and community associations, the transportation
committee has approved the construction of a level crossing at Holly Acres Road
as part of the planned western extension of the Transitway to Moodie Drive. The
revamped plans for extending the Transitway from Bayshore Shopping Centre to
Moodie were largely driven by a drop in the number of commuters expected to take
the bus to the new Department of National Defence site on Moodie Drive. DND has
nearly halved the number of employees it expects to house at the former Nortel
campus, from 15,000 to about 8,500. via
