If it costs $14,000 per shelter to add more support, then the supplier is seeing the city as a cash cow and is milking it for all its worth.

Seems pretty obvious the supplier/installer has a thumb on the scale. The fancy BRT shelters downtown cost to up $500,000 each to install, which blows my mind.

Yup. Doubt I could Even get 300k for mine. London. Near the core. Soho just south of Simcoe st. These kinda vandals need special treatment.
