Roger Browne is why St Clair, Spadina, and now Line 6 don't have TSP activated and (like everyone before him) shuts down any TTC suggestions to make transit faster. Just waiting for Olivia to use her strong mayor power to replace him with someone transit-first.

The main issue is they haven't adjusted the runtimes to address the lane closures from Ontario Line construction (10-20-min delay each way in PM peak), so naturally the buses become really delayed on a daily basis, which makes it impossible to even out service without doing a bunch of short turns.

Me: Let's see how the 25/925 bunching pilot is going
How it's going: No buses on platform ... one bus skips picking people up ... get on crowded bus ... see like two 25S's on the way ... still bunch with a 25 that was short-turned at Eglinton ... wonder why I didn't take the 54/162 ... send a CSC

I realize I messed up whenever I take these, the bunching/gapping pilot is literally making the service worse with more short turns than ever

Even with the AI fear mongering their poll shows a 50-50 split for a conservative-targeted audience which proves the City’s survey that most people (at least a slight majority) support it

That handle used to be (and is still managed by) TTCStuart but then they decided that impersonal corporate was the way to go.

They deploy the buses anywhere as-needed, like when shuttle buses are needed when a streetcar is blocked, or say a bus goes out of service so its trips still get served. The problem is there’s zero transparency in how/where they’re actually used.

TTC literally has over 30 of these buses in the evenings it’s a question of whether they put them in the right places.

100% I was in Germany last week and my feed was flooded with crazy alt-right posts with the most hateful content related to the Christmas market attack. Combined with Elon endorsing a neo-nazi German party it’s enough to get me to delete X.
