The bus from Erindale connects with the train at Port Credit.

S&B stopped making the old readers. They have an expected service life of between 3-4 years. S&B made a new one, but it was more expensive than the Famoco ones (OCTranspo bought it though).

Both the Famaco new and the S&B (old) TTC bus/streetcar readers have cellular connectivity. It wasn't enabled initially because of cost reasons (the cost per GB of cellular data has halved in 10 years). The S&B readers also had the hardware to support open payments but never got the software to...

Busses operating Milton line services aren't going into Toronto directly anymore, they connect with Lakeshore West trains now.

I know it's probably super difficult, but maybe one with all of GO's fare zones :P

That's something for the TTC board. In the back end, it's already set up for weekly capping after 10 trips.

The new target is February 2024, I'm as disappointed as everyone else.

Not sure I've seen a $31 fare to London since the YDS days.

It's a combination of reasons. The big reason is that around 90% of the code for Presto is written in India. iOS's marketshare in India is less than 5%. The developers have more experience with Android, so it helps speed up development if the Android version is done before iOS. TTC survey...

Express mode should be working at St Clair and rolled out to the rest of the network soon (maybe mid-September). Testing for Apple Pay virtual cards has started. It's hard to give definitive dates long before because not everything goes to plan and features get added and dropped. For example...

https://transittoronto.ca/subway/5107.shtml According to this, the wheel slip/flat issue comes from braking. The current SRT uses the reaction rail to help stop the train via regenerative braking. A train with conventional wheels would have to rely solely on the running wheels to stop the...

All of those things you listed could have been required either way because the SRT would have to be shut down for a period of time to perform the upgrades. Yes, it's possible to run an on-street shuttle without priority and avoid those costs (which the TTC has already been doing for over a...

After you account for inflation and required infrastructure improvements. The cost estimates for both the subway and the LRT have gone up 3x or more at various points in time since the 2006 report was published. I find it hard to believe that the cost of upgrading the SRT with new vehicles...

A software update is scheduled for that date.

College Park is UFCW 175. They ratified an agreement last year. I suspect UNIFOR is asking for more than what UFCW members are getting from Metro

TTC Fair Pass eligibility was expanded on July 27. https://www.toronto.ca/news/city-of-toronto-expands-fair-pass-transit-discount-program-eligibility-to-make-transit-more-affordable-for-more-low-income-residents/

Corporate policy for public communications is still zero-tolerance, hence the $35 fine for first offenders on the website. A Revenue Protection officer will not get in trouble for issuing a $35 fine for someone committing a first offence, especially for occasional travellers (which is what...

In almost all cases, credit/debit transactions are uploaded to the back end in real time. If everyone said that they tapped their debit/credit card and revenue protection took their word for it without taking down details, it would be a rampant hole for fare evasion, and offering contactless...
