TRANSIT: Counting Down to the Confederation Line Launch Day
Yes, this is self-repetition.
I don't know if this will make getting around town easier or more difficult yet. I do think OC Transpo is dreaming in VR if they believe this will let them reduce the number of buses in the fleet. Those buses no longer running through the downtown core will be needed to feed into and out of the O-Train lines at least 18 hours a day, 7 days a week. And to feed each other in those places that the O-Train lines don't directly connect. And the trips/hour frequency on all those bus routes will have to amp up.
