Should the Transit City plan be revived? Now that the Liberals are minority, it could happen. Personally, I don't think it should because I think it is a waste of money and not a lot of ppl will use it. I will, however, support the Finch West LRT. Now that everyone has a say at Queen's Park, I...

if they are gona go with this plan, wouldn't that mean they will be raising prices again? how will that attract riders?

No... I meant the LED screens that displays when the next bus will arrive, like the one they have at the YRT and VIVA terminal station at Finch and at some select bus stops...

just out of curiosity, i noticed that most bus stops are now equipped with the solar panel type bus shelter, would the ttc be able to save some money by only installing them at major bus stops (i.e. at major intersections only)? for regular stops, a bench would be good enough imo. and just like...

now this looks feasible to me, but i dun think the ttc would spend money on upgrading the signs to something like this.

When will the Nextbus system be fully implemented at all bus and streetcar stops? YRT and VIVA has had it for a long time now and still Toronto is falling behind...

I need to get myself a smartphone first, then install the nextTTC app. Apparently, it works exactly like Nextbus

exactly what tuscani01 said...

then keep it the same, flat fare i mean. but for transfers i guess they could either charge nothing or half. still not too sure how that is going to work...

And I am not asking for this to be fully implemented right away, obviously it's going to take time and money to think this through. Three to five years is acceptable, but another decade is just unbearable. In that time frame, think of something that will not involve using tickets and tokens...

Let me put this way, if the Presto system was fully implemented on all TTC buses, streetcars, and subways, then we wouldn't have to worry about fraud issues; fake tokens, tickets, and what not. This has been a big problem over the past few years, and the way the TTC is going to solve this...

Finally someone is on the same page as me. I mentioned the same before, but it just seems like a lot people don't see it's importance, they think it's a going to be hassle and difficult to implement. I was in Taiwan 2 months ago, and when I took the MRT, it was clean, accessible, and easy to...

finally caught the new train today at bloor station and i must say i am impressed with it! it was indeed a very quiet ride and the brake system has improved significantly. only problem i have with the new trains are the door closing announcements, there is that delay when the doors are already...

yes i kno about the website, but i was saying that if they could install it at the bus stop just like what they had with the streetcars at union station. i mean nextbus is great! just hope to see it on display at the actual bus stop... here is a sample of what i meant:

so it comes down to money again eh...sigh...

looks good to me =D isn't that system used on the streetcars too? it would be nice to see that be implemented on buses.

For those who take the bus often, you should have already noticed that on some bus routes, the bus never comes on time. Even though there is a schedule posted at that particular stop, it never matches. As for me, I am quite sensitive when it comes to being on time. So I thought I come up with a...

awesome! now i know when to catch those rockets! thanks!
