Basically, outside of Asia, every major city has transit issues, and everyone likes to think that their transit provider is the worst.
People who say that the TTC is SO much worse than every major city (ie. Jaybee) really need some perspective though.
The infrastructure is really nothing to be proud of. Even Montreal's subway system is set up better in terms of design. That silly"U" (Really, what's the distance between Younge and University?) that we have here in Toronto has to be the dumbest thing ever. It's not necessarily the delays that are the issue, it's the lack of planning regarding the subway routes.
I never said TTC was the worst...but it's deff not as wonderful as some say in this thread. Have you taken a look at the salaries at the TTC? LOL, if they spent less money on grossly overpaying their staff, they'd have enough money to do away with tokens and all the other archaic crap they currently have. I mean, we were using paper tickets what, 2 years ago?
