TTC: Other Items (catch all)

[Northern Light]

Is it worth it for stops that only see a few riders a day??

If the stop is retained? Yes.

Unequivocally;

Clearly, there are some stops that should be eliminated (many actually, but I digress)

But if you're keeping a stop, then do it correctly as much as space permits.

To do otherwise would be to say...in a restaurant.....so few people order the coleslaw....why bother getting it right? .... to which my answer is, if you don't want to sell coleslaw, don't............but if you do, make it properly.

No excuses for producing crap!

One guy standing near me, upstanding citizen that he was, said that if anyone hit the yellow emergency strip he was going to shoot them.

What a douche, must be an accomplice to the culprit who caused that chaos. Too bad he couldn't be thrown off the train (and under it, hehe).

Now I wanna know too, tried googling & looking it up on cptdb & ttc website, nothing came up. As usual, the only thing you hear about on the news are things you thankfully avoided irl, but whenever you do see something irl, there's almost always nothing on the news about wtf happened.

There are a huge amount of stops that need to be removed period as they are too close 125-200 meters stops are way too close as they should be 400-500 meters depending where the main transfer stop for routes are. Makes no different if it buses or streetcar. We go rid of Sunday stops and need to streamline the other stops

There are a number ways how next vehicle signs should be place from a 30 screen to 45 depending on the route and quality of service and if service by more than 1 route. It should show the next 3 vehicles arrival time to allow riders if they want to gab something or how much time they to do some shopping depending on the location.

Not going to be cheap. Even Europe doesn't have next vehicle signs at all stops and in some cases none at all. Most NA systems don't have next vehicle. York has them on their BRT lines. Mississauga has 2 and still testing them after 4 years and still not right.
